The Ossuary of Douaumont is an impressive memorial that holds the remains of more than 130,000 unknown French and German soldiers who died during the Battle of Verdun (1916). The bones are visible through small windows in the base – a confronting reminder of the horrors of war. In front of the ossuary is the Nécropole nationale de Douaumont, the largest French military cemetery of the First World War, with 16,142 graves, including a Muslim and Jewish plot. The complex was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2023.

The Myth of the First World War “In memory of the French soldiers who sleep standing, rifle in hand, in this trench – their brothers in America.” This is the inscription in front of the Memorial of the Battle of Verdun in the ghost town of Douaumont. The monument was financed by a wealthy American banker, George T. Rand, who was moved by the famous legend surrounding the site. It is said that French soldiers buried standing, with weapons in hand, died from enemy shells. Bayonet Trench is one of the myths of the First World War. In 1922, it was classified as a historical monument and in 2014 it was considered a site of national importance. After the war, excavations uncovered 21 bodies of French soldiers. Fourteen were identified and buried in the Necropolis of Fleury, opposite Douaumont. The seven other bodies that remained unknown were reburied in the "Bayonet Trench". For many, the myth persists, while others question it. Especially since no body was found standing upright. In any case, the legend of the "Bayonet Trenches" shows above all how much the Great War left an almost indelible mark on the collective imagination. As the bloody conflict of the Battle of Verdun drew to a close, glorious stories quickly emerged in which the nation sacrificed itself for the fatherland.

The city of Verdun, situated on the Meuse, played a very important role in the defence line that was built in the period after the Franco-Prussian War (1870). Along the French eastern border, a strong fortification belt was built between Verdun and Toul and between Épinal and Belfort as protection against a German threat. The Meuse played a very strategic role in this. Now you can enjoy the peaceful river on beautiful footpaths and esplanades.

Official entrance to the city since its construction in the 14th century and a defensive element of the Great Wall of China that surrounded Verdun in the Middle Ages. It was offered to the city by the bourgeoisie Wautrec, a councillor. It symbolises the new status of Verdun, which became a “free imperial city” in 1374. This status obliged the city to maintain its own ramparts and to organise its defence in the event of an attack.

This monument was built in 1929 in the city centre. The 73 steps lead to a crypt where the names of the soldiers were recorded in the Verdun Medal. Above the 30-metre high tower is a tower that leads east and back east. This monument is a permanent feature of the city. Beneath the warrior's feet is a crypt that is accessible to the public. From there, a soldier can search or go to the Mediterranean (from April to November). On 1 November, a ceremony was held at the Victory Monument to welcome the Holy Land under the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. This ceremony is a reflection of the sacrifices of the warlords and the desire of the incredible soldier. The anonymous soldier was killed on 10 November 1920 in the underground citadel of Verdun.
