This beautiful gravel path, known as the Tacot path, connects the Verdun Memorial to Vaux-devant-Damloup. It's the perfect track for picking up speed in a lovely natural setting steeped in history.

The Mémorial de Verdun, located near the ruined village of Fleury-devant-Douaumont, is a leading museum and commemoration site for the Battle of Verdun (1916). The museum displays more than 2,000 objects and uses authentic objects, photographs and audiovisual installations to show how French and German soldiers experienced this battle – in the exact same place where they fought.

The Tomb of Tavannes Nearly a thousand men died in the tunnel on September 4, 1916. Never forget 💮.

The Tavannes Tunnel was built between 1873 and 1874. It is a single tunnel, 5 meters wide and 1,196 meters long. The second tunnel, built in 1936, is the only one still in use today. Dug shortly after the Franco-Prussian War and 1,400 meters long, this single-track railway tunnel connected Verdun to Metz. Following the annexation of the latter city, the fate of the tunnel worried the military authorities. The report of the April 22, 1881, meeting of the Fortifications Committee states: "The Tavannes Tunnel, whose western end is behind the external works of Verdun, opens onto the Woêvre plain, beyond the Tavannes Fort. It is equipped with three groups of mine furnaces, and it is important that it remain in the hands of the defense until such time as it is deemed appropriate to destroy it. It is for this purpose that it is proposed to organize its eastern head defensively." The project supports two crenellated guardhouses, measuring less than 5.5 × 3.5 m, on either side of the track, against the tunnel. These guardhouses are connected by a short gallery inside the tunnel behind an armored door pierced with four firing loopholes. Between the guardhouses, the track crosses a 5.3 m long and approximately four meter deep jump, covered by "a light bridge that will be removed in time of war." Furthermore, the presence of eight mine furnaces in the center of the tunnel is also mentioned, six on the flank and two in the sky. The advisability of building upper floors of the guardhouses was discussed, and, as usual, money was discussed at length. A letter from Battalion Commander Lerosey of the Verdun Engineers was found in the archives, writing on February 13, 1895, to the general, president of the Technical Engineering Committee: "I have the honor to inform you that the construction of the defensive guardhouses at the eastern head of the Tavannes tunnel, including the gate and the ha-ha bridge (...) was completed (...) in 1883." The Technical Engineering Committee, in its meeting of March 5, 1895, recommended connecting the Tavannes fort to the tunnel by a gallery 160 cm wide by 230 cm high, with a length of 375 m, descending at a gradient of 14 centimeters per meter. The discussions seem to be very close to being concluded, but the information stops there, due to a lack of knowledge of the realization of these intentions. Within the proposals, the parallel with the Montmédy gallery is often mentioned[1].

Fort Douaumont is a remnant of the First World War. One of the most powerful constructions and a symbol of the Battle of Verdun. More than a return to the past, a visit to this place immerses us in the heart of a legendary confrontation and tells us about the lives of those who lost their lives there. Fort Douaumont was built between 1884 and 1886 and was an extremely strategic location during the Battle of Verdun. It is also to this battle that the Fort owes its fame. The fort has been a listed historical monument since 1970 and, at an altitude of 400 metres, it offers a view of the valley south-west of Douaumont. As a building barely finished, it was almost immediately outdated because of its masonry construction. Indeed, at that time, new shells were able to destroy masonry structures. That is why Fort Douaumont was covered with a thick layer of concrete in the most sensitive and exposed places. The effectiveness and resistance of the weapons make this fort one of the most powerful buildings in the entrenched camp of Verdun. From the beginning of the First World War, the village of Douaumont and its surroundings were put in a state of defense: trenches were dug, barricades were built, barricades were hung. At first, the village managed to defend itself. But, from 1915, the village could no longer hold out. The stabilization of the front line then changed the type of battle. On February 21, 1916, the Germans attacked Verdun. Fort Douaumont was a privileged target: in two days, it was hit by 800 shells. In a few days, the front line came dangerously close to the fort. Four days after the start of the battle, it was already in the hands of the German army. For eight months, the French army fought to retake the fort, using many shells. It was not until October 1916, after 6 days of preparation and the deployment of exceptionally dense artillery, that yet another attack succeeded in recapturing the fort. In the Fort Douaumont Museum, many films, photos, archive material and testimonies tell the story of the fort and the heroic soldiers who fought there. A moving discovery that is a good addition to a visit to the fort. Source: https://www.landofmemory.eu/nl/sites-historiques/fort-douaumont/
