🔭 **Observatoire de l’Étang d’Amel – Nature Observation at the Pond** At the Étang d’Amel, there is a wooden observation post from which wildlife can be observed undisturbed. Waterfowl such as herons, ducks, and geese are particularly easy to spot here – depending on the season, even with their young. 🌾 The platform is sheltered from the wind, offers information panels about the regional fauna, and is idyllically situated among reeds, trees, and riparian grass. **Tip:** Bring binoculars! The chances of spotting birds are particularly good in the early morning or late afternoon. Ideal for nature lovers and families.

Built in 1881 above the Tunnel de Tavannes to reinforce the inner defensive belt of Verdun. The battery had three firing platforms and a traverse shelter, and was originally armed with two 220 mm mortars and one 22 cm smoothbore mortar. In 1900 it was disarmed and reused during the Battle of Verdun (1916) as an ammunition depot and shelter for troops. The traverse shelter is the best preserved element visible today.

Abri is forbidden access. Still, it gives an impression of what war violence can do.

This spot is the perfect place to travel back in time. From the beginning of the Battle of Verdun, Fort de Vaux was one of the priority targets of the German offensive. In early March 1916, the Germans came within a few hundred metres of the fort and began a siege that lasted 100 days. Inside the fort, under a barrage of artillery fire, resistance was organised despite the lack of food and water. On 1 June 1916, the Germans reached the fort: the French garrison, isolated and without outside support, fought a week of heroic fighting inside the fort before being defeated by exhaustion.

As the starting point of the Battle of Verdun, the fort of Vaux remains one of the symbols of soldiers inspired by a sense of duty.
