National Necropolis

Historic village in the Vosges Ban-de-Sapt is located on a strategic height in the Vosges and was the scene of fierce fighting during WWI, especially around the côte 627. Today it is a peaceful place with a rich culture of remembrance. The Nécropole nationale de la Fontenelle, original trenches, a panoramic table and a rare steel observation capsule from WWI make the village a unique destination for those who want to combine nature and history.

This military cemetery at the top of Côte 627 commemorates the fierce battles of 1915 between French and German troops in the Vosges. The necropolis was built between 1921 and 1923 and contains 2,346 graves, 1,382 of which are in ossuaries. At its heart is a monumental memorial – a “phare” or lighthouse – designed by Émile Bachelet, visible from the entire valley. The site was strategically crucial: on 22 June 1915, German troops took the heights, but on 8 and 9 July the French recaptured the terrain.

As in Germany, most fountains are merely decorative and labeled "Water not suitable for drinking." It's therefore all the more pleasant to find a fountain here that even explicitly says "drinking water." One of the few fountains in the area has drinking water.

Coffee is also available. You can sit inside or outside.

The former town hall of Schirmeck on the market square was built in 1864. Today, the building houses clubs and the media library.
