Mémorial du Mardasson Ce monument, en forme d’étoile à cinq branches, a été conçu par l’architecte Georges DEDOYARD pour honorer la mémoire des soldats américains tués, blessés ou disparus pendant la Bataille des Ardennes. Une galerie circulaire à colonnes donne au monument l’aspect d’un vaste temple d’une hauteur de +/- 12 mètres avec un atrium central de 10 mètres de rayon.
