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.

I visited the Citadel in Verdun for the first time; all Covid measures in place and everything was very well done in that manner. The lady operating the welcome desk was very lovely, managed to find our reservation, etc and we were shown where to wait for the wagonnet. It’s a very interesting ride; taking one through difference scenarios and stories throughout the citadel (a captain, a group of higher ranking officers, the bakers, etc). The most exciting bit was the trench experience towards the end; you ride through a trench system with a moving screen showing a trench re-enactment. When the wagonnet tour ends after about 25 minutes, you’re prompted to walk through to the small exhibition about the French Unknown Warrior. Very humbling and sad story. Excellent overall ; only downside was no postcards or real ephemera for the museum itself!
