La Tranchee de Chattancourt

Reviewed By shrugitoff - Germany, null

Super historical close to the Mort Homme Hill. Staff are very dedicated and it shows that they work hard. Worth the stop for sure. A short, but incredibly unique and awesome experience.

Fleury

Reviewed By iWiebe - Utrecht, The Netherlands

The only thing left from this tiny village is its streetplan now converted to paths among littele signs pointing out the location of the buildings. The rest is completely obliterated, a very sobering experience.

Verdun Battlefield

Reviewed By JimSTL1021 - Saint Louis, United States

It is extremely worthwhile to tour the many sites located around Verdun to gain some first hand exposure to what took place here during WWI. To think of the millions of shells that were released here and the awful destruction that occurred will give you pause. This is a site that is well worth spending a day here to see the sights and learn as much as you can of the history here.
