Everyone at the American Heritage Museum wishes all of you a very happy and healthy holidays! Please come visit! We will be hosting the Battle of the Bulge Experience Weekend on December 28th & 29th and will be open Monday and Tuesday, December 30th & 31st.
As you come to experience what it was like to be an American surrounded in the cold of the Battle of Bulge (12/28 & 12/29), join the American Heritage museum on Saturday December 28th to learn about a similar battle 6 years later in the Korean War. Here the U.S. 1st Marine Division found themselves surrounded in a desperate fight in the extreme cold, outnumbered 5:1 against Chinese forces in the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. Like the Battle of the Bulge, the Chosin Reservoir is regarded as one of the most intense battles in American History, yet most Americans know little of this great battle of Korea, “The Forgotten War.” On December 28th at 1:00pm the museum will host a speaker series event about the Chosin Reservoir: “All Roads Lead to Hagaru” a special interactive discussion analyzing the crucial leadership decisions in the Chosin Reservoir that would decide whether or not the 1st Marine Division would escape the Chinese trap.

“The War To End All Wars – The Movie“ by Sabaton Premiere
November 11, 2023 @ 5:00 pm, ending 9:00 pm
$10 – $20
Founded in 1999 in Falun, Sweden, Sabaton is a five-piece band that is recognized for its fact-based music about important points in history.
Following years of hard work and research, the rock band has created “The War To End All Wars – The Movie” in partnership with Yarnhub, an animation studio focused on historical content. This is a 67-minute long musical motion picture which is being released in English and is only being made available for screenings through history museums worldwide.
The “History Rocks” campaign – the global museum project that revolves around the movie’s premiere – is set to take place within the two weeks surrounding November 11, 2023, which is a fitting date, as it commemorates the end of World War 1 (Armistice Day).
The screening of “The War To End All Wars – The Movie” on November 11th will be a perfect opportunity for people to learn more about this crucial part of history and reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought in the war. The premiere at the American Heritage Museum on November 11th is one of only a handful of viewings in the United States.
The evening event is limited to online presales of 150 people. Tickets include exclusive full access to the American Heritage Museum beginning at 5:00pm with the movie starting at 7:00pm. Refreshments will be available to purchase as well as the limited edition War to End All Wars T-Shirt. Admission to the event is $20 adults, $18 seniors / veterans, and $10 Children Under 12.
We may add an additional screening night if demand is high enough, but don’t wait and buy your ticket now!
