    The Herbouilly farm was Captain Goderville's command post during resistance operations in the Vercors in June 1944.

    Located on the Herbouilly plateau, more precisely in a clearing in the Herbouilly forest, not far from the chimney cave (at the limits of the municipal territories of Saint-Julien-en-Vercors, Saint-Martin-en-Vercors and Villard-de-Lans), the site of the farm would make it possible to receive airdrops and/or shelter fighters, the farm, isolated in the very center of the Vercors in a place difficult to access but easily spotted by plane, had been abandoned in the 1930s due to an anthrax epidemic.
