Museums in Germany about the First World War - Person Showing Red Mansion

In Germany there are many museums about the Second World War and the Nazi regime. But are there also museums about the First World War or at least history museums with exhibitions about the war?



Best Answer

Not in Germany, but within reach: When in school, our class went on a day trip from Germany to Verdun, France.

We visited Fort Douaumont, the Douaumont ossuary, and the museum. Finally - perhaps as a contrast - we went to the city of Verdun, which I remember as picturesque.

I highly recommend visiting the Verdun battlefield if you are interested in WWI trench warfare. Thinking about the visit still gives me chills.
