Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs Kim Guise of The National WWII Museum in New Orleans discusses the history behind Lt. Clair Cline’s hand-crafted violin. It was created using bed slats from bunks and bartered resources while Lt. Cline was held as a POW by Germans in Stalag Luft I. This is one of the artifacts you can find in the Museum’s final permanent exhibit hall, the Liberation Pavilion.

Liberation Pavilion explores the end of World War II, the Holocaust, the postwar years, and how the war continues to impact our lives today.
