A very beautiful and interesting monument.

Verdun is a very beautiful city that has been very important since the Middle Ages. It's lovely to walk through the place and admire it.

It is nice to see that the water level of the canal is much higher than the water level of the stream.

Tevens stands at the church's image: The Cross of the Hunters of Briant Cross of the Hunters of Driant in Vacherauville (Meuse) after the First World War. At the end of 1915, the monument in the form of a statue of France, sword in hand, imploring the heavens for victory was erected, but destroyed by the Germans in February 1916. At the end of the conflict, the former hunters erected a new, identical statue, but this time with the sword in its sheath, as shown on the Bleujonquille website.

Notice how the water level of the canal is higher than the water level of the Meuse.

This is one of the few places to stop for refreshments along this section of the Trans-Ardennes cycle route, close to the Meuse River. Friendly staff.

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 Lion of Souville Symbol of resistance at the gates of Verdun; This impressive monument, unveiled on 1 October 1922, stands on the site of the former Sainte-Fine chapel and commemorates the fallen of the 130th French Infantry Division. Designed by animal sculptor and veteran René Paris, the statue depicts a dying Bavarian lion – a powerful allegory for the defeat of the German troops and the heroic French defence during the Battle of Verdun. On 23 June 1916, the German attacks reached their peak at Fort de Souville, the last obstacle to the fall of Verdun. Thanks to the courage of a small French garrison led by Lieutenant Dupuy, the fort remained in French hands. The lion marks the extreme point of the German advance – the “last gate” to Verdun remained closed.
