    The Nécropole nationale de Pontavert is a military cemetery from the First World War, located in the municipality of Pontavert. There are approximately 7,000 fallen soldiers, including 67 British and 54 Russians. The cemetery also contains a monument in memory of the 31st Infantry Regiment, which took part in the attack on the Bois des Buttes and the Ville-au-Bois in April 1917, during the Chemin des Dames offensive. The cemetery is one of the many places of remembrance of the First World War in the Hauts-de-France region.
