Wolfsschlucht I, Military headquarters in Brûly-de-Pesche, Belgium

The Wolfsschlucht I complex contains two bunkers, multiple barracks, and a modified church situated within the forested region of southern Belgium.

From June 6 to June 24, 1940, Adolf Hitler directed military operations against France from this location, making strategic decisions about the Western campaign.

Two permanent exhibitions in reconstructed barracks present information about German occupation and local resistance movements through multimedia displays and artifacts.

The site offers guided tours in four languages along a mapped route that connects various military structures, including the command bunker and strategic meeting points.

A German landscape architect designed the surrounding park with specific geometric elements, including an omega-shaped stone platform for military addresses.
