The Verdun Memorial is a museum dedicated to the history and memory of the Battle of Verdun of 1916. The museum is very complete, with an immersive tour which offers a complete chronology of the 1914-1918 war. The living conditions as well as the technological advances that took place throughout the War are well illustrated. From the top floor, there is a beautiful view of Verdun, notably the ossuary.

The Verdun Memorial is a museum dedicated to the history and memory of the 1916 Battle of Verdun, located in Fleury-devant-Douaumont, a few kilometers from Verdun, in the Meuse department in the Grand Est region.

Created in 1967 on the initiative of the National Committee for the Remembrance of Verdun and its chairman Maurice Genevoix, the museum is a place of remembrance for veterans of the First World War. From late 2013 to early 2016, the Memorial will be closed for renovation and expansion work. DE21 February 2016, it reopens on the occasion of the centenary of the beginning of the Battle of Verdun. The museum's scenography has been modernized and more educational, and the conflict is now presented from a French-German perspective.
