Tussen Bras-sur-Meuse in Vacherauville

The imposing bulwark on the Meuse River in Verdun is not only a memorial but also a representative example of contemporary history. Visit the underground citadel. You will be led into the vault and board a carriage. You will be equipped with headphones in your own language and 3D glasses. The story of three soldiers will be reenacted on September 13, 1916, on a rainy morning, returning from the Fleury front to Verdun. They were ordered to participate in the ceremony in the citadel. The "election of the unknown soldier" made this place a symbol of this terrible history. No photos are permitted during the tour. Opening hours vary depending on the season. Be sure to dress warmly, as it is always cold in the mountains (7 degrees Celsius).

The Meuse at Verdun plays a crucial role in both the landscape and the history of the region. Cutting deeply through the hilly terrain, it has provided a natural defensive advantage—something that became painfully clear during the Battle of Verdun in 1916, one of the longest and bloodiest battles of the First World War. In addition to its strategic importance, the Meuse also has a more peaceful face: it flows peacefully along the banks of the city of Verdun, connecting the past with the present in a landscape that breathes history.

Inaugurated in 1928, this war memorial in Verdun honours the city’s inhabitants who died for France in both world wars. It was built on the remains of a military butcher’s shop, on the crescent of the Chaussée, a 17th-century fortification. The sculpture depicts five soldiers – a cavalier, an engineer, an infantryman (poilu), an artilleryman and a territorial – forming a symbolic wall under the motto of Verdun: “On ne passe pas”.

The Meuse is a 950-kilometre-long river in Western Europe. The Meuse rises in France and then flows through Belgium and the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, the Meuse is the southernmost of the major rivers and flows into the North Sea via the Dutch river delta. Source: Wikipedia
