Beautiful church in this small village.

The Crise Valley is a historic site where important battles were fought. Numerous churches and castles were built there, and remnants can still be seen. The castle of Berzy-le-Sec dates back to between the 12th and 16th centuries, having undergone several construction phases. The ruins of this building remain today: adjacent ditches and a courtyard. The castle was converted into a farm from the 18th century until the First World War.

This large German war cemetery is located near the Fort de La Malmaison, along the Chemin des Dames. It was created in 1941 by the Wehrmacht to centralise scattered graves from the Aisne region. After the war, the site was officially recognised by a Franco-German convention in 1954 and inaugurated in 1965. It is the resting place of almost 11,850 German soldiers, mainly those who died during the 1940 campaign and the fighting following the Allied landings in Normandy in 1944. Between 1960 and 1961, more than 6,800 bodies were reburied from six surrounding departments. The cemetery is sober and serene, with rows of dark crosses and a memorial stone. It is a silent reminder of the fierce fighting in this region and is an important stop on the remembrance routes along the Chemin des Dames.

Located along the Chemin des Dames, this monument commemorates the Régiment d’Infanterie Coloniale du Maroc, which fought heavily in the region during the Battle of La Malmaison in October 1917. It honours the commitment and sacrifice of Moroccan troops within the French army during WWI 1.

Pleasant but very muddy at this time of year

I adore. There's a hostel nearby where I can drink a coke and refill the canisters.
