The German military cemetery of Noyers-Pont-Maugis is the final resting place of 26,843 soldiers who died during the First and Second World Wars. You can stroll among the rows of crosses and pay your respects to fallen soldiers, while admiring views of the surrounding countryside. The cemetery has a chapel and a memorial hall, where you can learn about the history of the wars and the people buried here.

The Fourth French Army, under General de Langle de Cary, continued its strategic withdrawal. His 11th Corps reached Sedan on Monday 24 August 1914. Accompanied by the enemy the next morning, he resisted until the 26th and received orders to cross over to the left bank a little before noon, towards Wadelincourt and Noyers. On the night of the 26th to the 27th, the Germans besieged the Marfée plateau and took Chaumont - Saint Quentin around 6 am. On the morning of August 27, the men of the 137th Infantry counterattacked with their bayonets, reaching Noyers at 9:00 am and driving the invader back to the banks of the Meuse. "I die happy, my soldiers are brave," are the last words of their leader, Colonel de Marolles, mortally wounded.
