The monument was created in 1930 by the sculptor Duilio Donzelli, originally from Lacroix-sur-Meuse. Like many French villages after the Great War, Bonzée erected this monument to pay tribute to the local soldiers who gave their lives for France. The names of the fallen are listed on the monument, often with inscriptions such as "Mort pour la France" or "Tué à l'ennemi". What makes it extra special is that Bonzée is located in an area that was badly affected during the war, near the infamous ridge of Les Éparges. The monument is therefore not only a symbol of mourning, but also of the deep scars that the conflict has left in this region.

The Saint-Laurent church in Bonzée, originally from the 18th century, destroyed in 1914, rebuilt in 1927.

In 1967, this granite monument was erected in honour of the sappers of the French army who played a key role in the mine warfare around Les Éparges. The seven columns symbolise the specialisations of the Génie: from sapeurs-mineurs to aérostiers. The monument commemorates their courage and technical ingenuity during one of the toughest fronts of WWI.

This serene military cemetery was founded in 1915 and is the home of 2,960 French soldiers who fell during the bloody battles around the Crête des Éparges. Among them was Robert Porchon, friend of the writer Maurice Genevoix. The necropolis is located in the Hadimel ravine, at the foot of the ridge, and contains an ossuary with 852 unknown soldiers. A silent witness to the hell of trench warfare.

In the ridge of Les Esparges, heavy fighting took place between the Germans and the French in the period 1915-1918. The location was of strategic importance at an altitude of 1400m.

Very pretty area, possibility of picnicking at the edge of the Yron, quiet village. The old town is pleasant to visit, with information panels on the few monuments.
