Moronvilliers was a village in the Marne that was completely destroyed during the First World War. It was located in the zone rouge, an area that was so badly damaged by the fighting that reconstruction was considered impossible. After the war, the village was not rebuilt and today it is part of the Moronvilliers military training area. Its name lives on in Pontfaverger-Moronvilliers, and like other "destroyed villages", only a few traces remain as silent witnesses to the devastating battle.
