If customers are no longer welcome, you can make this clear by sending a written message at the entrance door.
We were shown the door unprofessionally.
And we who thought tourists were welcome. Unfortunately, we went elsewhere to satisfy our taste buds.

German Panther Tank Memorial, Houffalize

Consolation... On this site you will find enough information boards that explain the special history of this Panther Tank.
In a nutshell:
On 19 December 1944, during the Battle of the Bulge, the German unit of this tank, the 116. Panzer-Division, LVIII Panzerkorps, 5. Panzer-Armee, captured the town. On January 3, 1945, the Americans started a counter-attack and the German troops had to withdraw to the east on January 15, 1945. The tank was then upside down in the Ourthe, on the west side of Houffalize.
On September 20, 1948, the tank was taken out of the river by the engineers of Namur.
In 2017, the tank was taken apart for a two-year restoration. The tank is one of three surviving Panzerkampfwagen V Panther tanks in the Ardennes, alongside those of the Tank Monument in Celles and Tank Monument in Grandmenil.
Now we wait and look forward to the return of the tank.
