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 cemetery's name, "Adanac," was formed by reversing the letters of "Canada" to honor the 1,078 Canadians buried there. There are now 3,187 Commonwealth and First World War commemorative graves in this cemetery, of which 1,709 are unidentified: 1,989 British, 1,074 Canadian, 70 New Zealand, 56 Australian, and 1 German. The village of Miraumont was occupied by British troops on February 24 and 25, 1917, following the German withdrawal to the Hindenburg Line. The village, recaptured by the Germans on March 25, 1918, was finally captured by the 42nd (East Lancashire) Division on August 24.
