The church, dedicated to the Virgin Mary under the title "Notre-Dame de Lorette," rises in brilliant white and is visible from afar. But this radiant impression is deceptive, especially when visitors realize they are standing in a vast military cemetery. Approximately 20,000 individual graves and another 23,000 victims of war and tyranny buried in ossuaries are deeply disturbing.

A remarkable story about the ruins concerns the decision not to rebuild the church after the war. Although the church had been classified as a historical monument in 1908, the Commission for Historical Monuments decided that the ruins should remain as a testimony to the German destruction. Ironically, it was the French guns that had destroyed the church, but the ruins became a symbol of the war and the reconstruction.

The ruins of the old church of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire are an impressive and symbolic remnant of the First World War. Built in the 16th century in flamboyant Gothic style by Jacques Le Caron, this church was badly damaged during the fighting in 1915. The ruins have been preserved as a monument to commemorate the horrors of war.

There is a beautiful circular path around the lake - partly on planks.
