Some History:
MASSACRE AT LIGNEUVILLE Dec 16, 17 44'
About 1400 the Piper resumed the march, taking some time
to negotiate the sharp turns and narrow streets in Ligneuville.
At the western exit the point of the column ran onto the trains
belonging to CCB, 9th Armored Division, which was preparing to
move east in support of the combat command then engaged in the
St. Vith sector. A few Sherman tanks and a tank destroyer
made a fight for it, demolishing the leading Panther and a few
other armored vehicles. Peiper's column was delayed for about
an hour.
The Germans took eight American prisoners in the Hotel du Moulin.
The Germans then took the eight prisoners outside in the back of
the hotel and shoot and kill them one by one.
