    This concrete bunker was built in 1915 to protect the strategic crossroads Croix de Pierre. It is named after Lieutenant Robert de Courson de la Villeneuve, who was killed in the Argonne in 1914. The shelter is a silent witness to the fierce fighting in this wooded front area during WWI. The bunker is located near the road and is freely accessible.
