After the Volksbund took over, development work began in 1933, such as the planting of birch trees that give this cemetery a particular charm or the construction of a memorial site (Gedenkhalle) in pink Vosges sandstone based on the plans of the Volksbund's chief architect, Robert Tischler. Inside this building, which is located at the back of the necropolis and after taking a staircase, one reaches a cloister from which one accesses a crypt in which the names of all the men buried in this cemetery are engraved on large beech wood panels. 

This cemetery, located in a town occupied by the Germans from September 1914 to October 1918, was created near a field hospital.  From 1920 onwards, it served as a nucleus for the grouping of German graves located in around sixty communes, in particular those in the cemeteries created by the Germans during the war in the communes they occupied, such as Mauregny-en-Haye (more than 1,000 graves), Coucy-les-Eppes (more than 500) and Berrieux (600).  The men buried here all fought east of the Chemin des Dames, mainly in the autumn of 1914, early 1915, in April and May 1917 (during General Nivelle's offensive), at the end of May 1918 and from September to October of that same year. Today, this necropolis houses 7,192 bodies: 5,402 are buried in individual and collective graves (of which 8 combatants could not be identified) and 1,790 rest in an ossuary (of which only 54 could be identified).
