Officially part of the Historial de la Grande Guerre, the Thiepval Museum is located near the impressive Thiepval Memorial and offers an in-depth look at the Battle of the Somme of 1916. Opened in 2016 to mark the centenary of this bloody battle, the museum comprises seven thematic areas, each highlighting a different aspect of the war. One of the highlights is the 60-metre-long panoramic comic strip by artist Joe Sacco, which vividly depicts the events of 1 July 1916. Visitors will gain insight not only into the military strategies, but also into the human suffering and the culture of remembrance surrounding the missing of the Somme.

The Cratère de Lochnagar, an impressive war memorial, was created by a huge mine blown up by the British Royal Engineers on 1 July 1916, as part of the Battle of the Somme. The explosion marked the beginning of the battle and left a crater 90 metres in diameter and 25 metres deep. Interestingly, the crater was named after Lochnagar Street, the trench from which the tunnel was dug. The crater is now a preserved site of remembrance and a religious service is held there every year on 1 July in memory of those who died.

The Tyneside Monument commemorates the soldiers of the Tyneside Irish and Tyneside Scottish Brigades who fought in the First World War. The monument was erected in memory of the men who died during the Battle of the Somme. An interesting anecdote is that the Tyneside Brigades suffered heavy losses on 1 July 1916, the first day of the Battle of the Somme. Many of the soldiers came from the same communities, which had a great impact on their home front.

The Tyneside Memorial (a region in northern England, near Newcastle) was erected on the site of the British trenches at the start of the Battle of the Somme. It commemorates two brigades of the 34th British Division (the Tyneside Scottish and Tyneside Irish) who lost 60% of their men attacking to the sound of bagpipes at this precise location on July 1, 1916, believing the enemy barbed wire had been destroyed by an artillery barrage. It reads: "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." "Here, opposite this monument, on July 1, 1916, the Tyneside Scottish and Tyneside Irish engaged the enemy for several hours. The fortunes of the fighting swung in and out, but before nightfall, the two Tyneside Brigades, with the help of other units of the 34th Division, achieved their objective. Do not think that the struggle and their sacrifice were in vain."

The monument pays tribute to the 1st Australian Division, which, during the Battle of the Somme, participated in the capture of Pozières alongside the British 48th Division (South Midland Division) in the summer of 1916. The path leading to this monument corresponds to the first trench of the German line, defended by the Gibraltar blockhouse, the foundations of which are still visible, and which was captured by the Australians on July 14, 1916. The village of Pozières had been heavily fortified by the Germans (a double network of trenches and numerous machine-gun nests) because it was located on a ridge (elevation 160) with a 360° view that was of crucial importance (including for capturing Thiepval from behind). In six weeks, between July 14, the day of the first assault on the Gibraltar site, and September 26, the date of the capture of Mouquet Farm (by British and Canadian forces), the three Australian divisions that took part in the fighting on this ridge suffered 23,000 casualties (killed, wounded, and missing). Pozières is a symbol for Australia (after the war, an Australian village in Queensland was named after it). Indeed, it was by storming this village that the Australian Army Corps (AIF) marked its first major engagement in the Great War.

The foundations of the blockhouse, captured by the Australians on July 14, 1916, are still visible. It was actually an old cellar that had been reinforced and accessed through a concrete entrance. The village of Pozières had been heavily fortified by the Germans (defended by nearly 200 machine guns). It was located on a ridge (elevation 160) crossed by a double network of trenches. Two enormous blockhouses dominated the battlefield: "Gibraltar" at the southern entrance (coming from Albert), and "Le Moulin à Vent" at the northern entrance from Bapaume (which would not be captured until August 4).

There are very few opportunities to shop along the V30 cycle route. This supermarket in Bray-sur-Sommes is a rare opportunity to stock up on groceries. We haven't yet figured out the differences between a Carrefour Contact (green) and a Carrefour Express (red).

Nathalie and Jérôme Follet run a small restaurant on the water, right on the V30 cycle path. Whether in the small old restaurant, in the larger modern hall, on the terrace or simply in the garden on the lawn, the lovingly prepared dishes can be enjoyed wonderfully everywhere. After a lunch like that, the only thing that becomes a little tiring is continuing to cycle. Since there are few shops and very few restaurants in the area, we were happy to accept this small effort. —— 3 Chaussee d‘Eclusier 80340 Eclusier-Vauxhall +33 6 86954908 bouchons@orange.fr www.domainedesptitsbouchons.eatbu.com
