Perlé is a small town in the commune of Rambrouch, in western Luxembourg. Perlé was a commune in the canton of Redange until 1 January 1979, when it was merged with the communes of Arsdorf, Bigonville, and Folschette to form the new commune of Rambrouch. |
Description | Text from 385bg.com 2015: The exhibition, first to be shown for the dedication ceremony only, soon grew and many interesting parts showed up and donations completed the collection. Veterans of the 385th Bombardment Group donated personal items, materiel and uniforms. Parts from B-17 crash sites all over Luxembourg made the collection even more valuable. The collection was installed for permanent display and the museum was born. Even more items, donations of local people and veterans made the collection fill up the three rooms, so the need of a larger showroom became obvious. Plans for new, larger showrooms in the former school building were made. The Municipality of Rambrouch began work on the renovation and transformation of the building end of 2000. Generous donators and supporters from Luxembourg, the United States and all over the world helped to make the collection even greater. Many veterans donated personal items telling their story of life and service during W.W.II. Very extraordinary items found their way to Perle and make the actual museum collection worth visiting. With the outstanding help of many supporters and donators, the collection may be one of the finest Air Force collections in Luxembourg and in Europe. |
