    MEDIA RELEASE INTERNATIONAL LAUNCH EVENT OF THE LIBERATION ROUTE EUROPE HIKING TRAILS A unique international trail initiative to keep the memory of WWII alive Brussels, 15 July 2021 – The LRE Foundation is happy to announce the next evolution of the Liberation Route Europe, a certified Council of Europe Cultural Route connecting places and people that mark Europe’s liberation from occupation during World War II. The launch event will take place on 22 July at 3 pm CEST when the Foundation will present the brand new European-wide system of hiking trails along the Liberation Route Europe. Developed in collaboration with hiking associations across Europe, the new hiking trails link museums, memorials, cemeteries and historical sites along the Allied Forces’ advance in the last phase of WWII and aim to stretch for 10.000 km. The hiking experience is accompanied by the new Liberation Route Europe website and travel planner that allows the public to read and listen to many stories about WWII and plan their journey along the hiking trails. Rémi Praud, Managing Director of the LRE Foundation: “We are excited to launch this new system of hiking trails connecting regions, sites and historical places across Europe. These trails are a new meaningful, and sustainable way to experience the Liberation Route Europe. This is only the beginning. We are excited to expand to new regions and countries in the upcoming years.” On the morning of 22 July, the LRE Foundation, in collaboration with the Best Defence Foundation, will escort seven U.S. veterans who served in Germany in 1945 for a visit with press to the German-Russian Museum Berlin- Karlshorst.

    SAMPLE TOUR FRANCE - LUXEMBOURG - BELGIUM BATTLEFIELD TOUR - WWII OPERATION OVERLORD AND BATTLE OF THE BULGE NORMANDY - Welcome to Normandy, known for its wealth of food products and the significant role it played in European history. The name Normandy is derived from the word Northman, referring to the Scandinavian Vikings who settled here in the 10th century and later became known as Normans. The Allied invasion on June 6, 1944 and the long Battle of Normandy that followed left another permanent footprint in Normandy. The historical importance of this invasion that led to the liberation of Europe from the Nazi-German occupation can be seen and felt throughout Normandy because of the many well preserved military structures, objects, memorials and cemeteries from the Second World War. Aside from history, Normandy is also known for its many agricultural products such as dairy, apples, pears, ciders and more. 1 DEPARTURE Depart to Europe on your overnight flight. 2 ARRIVAL Arrive at the International Airport of Paris Charles de Gaulle and meet your European Tour Manager who will remain with you throughout the tour. Board your private bus and drive to Caen, Normandy. With a population of more than 100,000 inhabitants, Caen is the third largest city of Normandy and has been the stage of some of the largest events in European history. In the 11th century, William the Conquerer turned Caen into the center of ducal court and started his invasion of England from Caen. During the Battle of Normandy in WWII, Caen sustained heavy war damage, however the town still has a pretty historic center with impressive medieval buildings and structures, reminding us of the great seat of Norman power it once was.
