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.

Beautiful, peaceful location to take a break.
Lovely to stay at the waterfront of the Maas Canal. Information boards provide information about fauna and flora

The Meuse

Highlight • Other

The Meuse and the Canal de Meuse run together near the city of Verdun through the Maasvlakte.
Know that it can be quite busy here. Enjoy together, each at their own pace.

The monument is located on the east bank of the Meuse, in front of Japiot Park, next to Porte Chaussée. Built in 1928, it stands on the site of the military butchery destroyed in 1916. The monument is composed of five figures representing the five corps of the army engaged during the battle of 1916: a horseman, an engineer, a territorial , an infantryman and an artilleryman.

Memoire Vive

Highlight • Historical Site

Located near the Porte Chaussée and the Verdun War Memorial, this contemporary metal sculpture was designed by the artist Jean-No and created by students from the Lycée Professionnel Eugène Freyssinet. Created to mark the centenary of the Battle of Verdun, it symbolises the living memory of the conflict. The installation connects the past and the future through education and art.

Water on both sides

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

It is nice to see that the water level of the canal is much higher than the water level of the stream.

Dun-sur-Meuse is a French commune located in the department of Meuse, in the Lorraine region.

The upper town was largely destroyed during the First World War.

This bridge over the Meuse is one of the most beautiful monuments of this type in France. There are bronze balustrades on both sides of the bridge, with designs in the center and inscribed plaques.

It reminds French citizens and others, who will cross the bridge for years to come, of the passage of the Meuse.

The crossing of the Meuse by the 5th Division was commanded by General John Pershing.

It was one of the most brilliant military exploits of the American army on French territory.
