Mouzon

Highlight • Settlement

This charming little town has a significant historical and industrial heritage. It is nestled between the Meuse and the eponymous canal. Don't miss its beautiful Notre-Dame abbey church either.

Military cemetery created in 1916 during the Battle of Verdun. It contains the remains of 6,537 French soldiers, including 2,000 in ossuaries.

Verdun Memorials and Monuments

Highlight • Historical Site

Verdun, in Lorraine, in the middle of the Maasvlakte, is marked by a heavy historical past, closely linked to the First World War. Battlefield of a terrible battle in 1916, which cost more than 300,000 lives in 10 months, the city commemorates this painful past with a permanent tribute to the soldiers killed at the front.

Cumières-le-Mort-Homme

Highlight • Other

Cumières-le-Mort-Homme (with the predestined name) is one of the eight completely destroyed villages in the red zone of Verdun.

It was in February 1916 that the heaviest fighting took place. 10,000 hairy people died in this sector. In 1922, the town was declared a "dead village for France".

Two kilometers in the woods of the hill, you find the statue of the sculptor Jacques Froment-Meurice which is related to the event.

After yesterday's impressive hike to the battlefields of Verdun, today we continued to Sedan - another city where you are confronted with the fateful history of Germany's desire to become a great power. In fact, in almost every place here in the north-east of France you come across memories of the dead from the two world wars. The area here …

Km 83 past Marre. Crazy route, impassable dirt roads with steep inclines. A detour on the D38 would be much better.
