Jean and Denise Letaille, a farming couple from Bullecourt, have collected a collection of objects found in their fields and in the surrounding countryside. Weapons and other personal belongings from Australia, Germany and the United Kingdom were found on the former front line alongside the men they belonged to and who fell during the two Battles of Bullecourt in April and May 1917. Gathered in the museum, these remains shed light on an often unknown episode of the Great War, yet one of the deadliest. They especially tell the story of the “Diggers”, these brave soldiers from the other side of the world.
