We had the most amazing experience at Epinal American Cemetery when we visited in August. A wonderful man (whose name I forgot to get!) welcomed us and when he found out we were visiting our great-great uncle’s grave, he treated us like VIPs. He gave us many pamphlets and information on Epinal. After we signed the special family guest book, he walked us to the grave and planted an American and French flag in the ground. He then had us rub wet sand from Omaha beach onto the engraving to stand out for our photos. To finish off our amazing experience he ran back to the office and played “America the Beautiful” and “Taps” on the speaker system throughout the cemetery. I did not expect this to be such an emotional experience, but it ended up being the highlight of our trip! Thank you again to everyone at Epinal!

Extraordinary views of valleys and mountains from the road, which was built during WWI to facilitate French military movements. This was the border between Germany and France from 1871 until the end of WWI. The route goes from about 3000 feet to over 4000 feet, and there are several restaurants on the way, with great views. Also very popular with hikers.

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.

One of the tallest cathedrals in France, the 12th-century building is also known for its extensive use of stained-glass windows.
Reviewed By thomasozbun - Vicenza, Italy
Mostly built in the Gothic style between the 13th and 16th centuries it holds the largest expanse of stained glass in the world, most of which from famous artists throughout history such as Hermann von Munster from the 13th century and modernist Marc Chagall from the 20th. As soon as we entered, in fact, the interior was immense and amazing with a huge nave all decorated with stained glass. We also admired the sculpted extior too, built in the local yellow Jaumont Limestone.
