This impressive First World War cemetery is located in the hamlet of Aux Zières de la Vigne near Bertrimoutier (Vosges). It consists of two parts: a French national necropolis with 966 individual graves, including 12 Russian and 1 Romanian soldier, and a German military cemetery with 6,749 dead, more than 4,000 of whom are buried in ossuaries.

The site was created between 1921 and 1924 and has become a symbol of shared remembrance. The German graves are marked with simple metal crosses; the names of the unknown are on bronze plaques. Most of the dead fell during the Battle of Lorraine in August 1914 or during trench warfare in the years that followed.
