Best Hikes to French-English cemetery

Tips

  • As a memorial to the many dead, such places are still very important today. "Now, Lord, let your servant go in peace, as you said." However, the many buried here did not separate in peace, but became victims of war and inhuman tyranny.
    The most important and at the same time everlasting function of the military cemeteries (usually called "war grave sites" in German-speaking countries) is therefore to commemorate this and to remind each generation anew to preserve peace over the long term.

  • The Bernard maquis, stationed in this forest, established this military cemetery to bury the bodies of the combatants who died during the fighting for liberation. This cemetery, in the heart of the forest, is often called the "Cathedral of Greenery." It's a beautiful forest perfect for a stroll.
