Franco-American Monument to the Liberation of Fraize (November 1944) A monument commemorating the American soldiers who liberated Fraize at the end of World War II. Located a few dozen meters from the Mandray Pass.

The Monument des Américains on the Col du Mandray is a memorial erected in 1991 in honour of the American troops involved in the liberation of the Vosges during the Second World War. It was inaugurated by Jean Weber, a former resistance fighter and mayor of Fraize. The monument is a place of annual commemoration, where, among other things, the liberation of Fraize and Plainfaing is celebrated. During these ceremonies, flags are raised, wreaths are laid and testimonies are shared by veterans and relatives.

Nestled in a valley between wooded hills, this peaceful village is a gateway to the Vosges. During the First World War, it was close to the front, which is still visible in the area via bunkers, trenches and memorials. Today, Ban-de-Laveline is a popular base for hikers and cyclists, with routes to the Col d’Hermanpaire, the Spitzemberg and the nature reserve around the Tête de Raves. In the village itself, you will find a sober Église Saint-Laurent, a classic Monument aux Morts, and a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to explore.

Col de Mandray (694 m) is a quiet and steady climb in the Vosges, ideal for a relaxing ride or as a warm-up for more difficult cols. From Fraize you climb over 4.5 km with an average gradient of 4.2%. The road is well passable, with little traffic and beautiful views over the Meurthe valley. A hidden gem for those who love quiet, natural climbs.

If you are coming from the direction of the Col de Bonhomme or the Route de Cretes, this is the best alternative to the busy yellow road. Going the other way... phew 😁

Instead of driving down the Col de Bonhomme on the yellow road, there is an option to drive into the "forest" further up the Route de Cretes in the bend. You drive on tarred roads through the forest to the Col de Mandray. Simply great...
