MUSEUM ROMAGNE 14-18



The museum offers a unique private collection of World War 1 relics. All the relics in the museum are found by Jean Paul de Vries, the owner of the museum, near the village of Romagne sous Montfaucon, the American sector in the First World War. Jean Paul collected over 200.000 objects for his museum and has a great story on every piece he found. Besides the many objects that are on display there is also a reconstruction of the battlefield (including a MG-position) of 10 by 5 meters and two underground shelters that can be visited.

The museum is located near the large bridge and church in the center of the town. It is the last house on the left before passing the large bridge when driving from the church to the American cemetery. The address is Rue de L'andon 2, Romagne sous Montfaucon.

NEWS JULY 19, 2025

On Thursday, July 3, a large-scale inspection by the French authorities took place at the War for Peace/Romagne 14-18 museum, completely unexpectedly and without prior notice. The suspicion has been raised that Jean-Paul has illegally obtained material in his museum and is exhibiting it.

The collection has been seized.

The case is currently under investigation. More information about the next steps and the consequences for the museum is expected after the summer holidays.
