This austere cemetery is the home of 203 French soldiers who died in the fighting around the Hauts de Meuse during WWI. Only 86 of them have been identified. Of particular note is the grave of Henri-Alban Fournier, better known as the writer Alain-Fournier, author of Le Grand Meaulnes. He disappeared in 1914 during a reconnaissance mission and was only found in 1991 in a mass grave in the nearby forest. He was reburied here in 1992, along with his comrades from the 288th Regiment.
