🔭 **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.

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. Triggered? Buy a combined ticket and immerse yourself in the history of this episode in the war of 14-18 with a visit to Fort de Vaux. The tour gives an insight into the daily living conditions of the besieged soldiers in the heart of the fort. A must-see for any history buff.

The village of Vaux-Devant-Damloup lies in the heart of the Verdun battlefield. The Fort de Vaux bears his name. This village was completely destroyed during the Battle of Verdun in 1916. The year was 1924… The name Vaux-Devant-Damloup was to be removed from the map of France and the area of the commune, definitively classified in the “red zone”, had already been purchased by the state. The love for the native soil, the cult of memory, the reputation of the graves would soon bring together a bundle of good will and only the construction of a moral city, a city of souls, a harbinger of material reconstruction, modestly made this possible Already an artery had breathed some semblance of life into the deserted valley: an economic railway line had been restored; A small train station was built. To house the station's employees, modest houses had been built along the railway line. A school functioned in a barracks while waiting for something better. Under the energetic drive of its new mayor, the municipality launched various projects and immediately worked to realize them. An amount of 150,000 francs was allocated in successive installments for the creation of a new road network. The construction of a town hall school in 1928 inaugurated the rebirth of the town. A water supply was carried out and an electrical line was built. As the outskirts of the city became more hospitable, consideration was given to building a chapel, a memorial temple where the former residents and the families of the village's eighteen children who died on the Field of Honor would gather. To assert the legal personality of the new agglomeration, the municipality bought 30 hectares of land, while the mayor, his deputy and some other residents made the same gesture for their personal accounts: 200 hectares were thus deducted from the red zone. Today Vaux-Devant-Damloup is the only village rebuilt in the area of the battlefield, about 500 meters from the destroyed village. There are approximately thirty houses and 72 residents.

The Fort de Vaux can be visited. In addition to the building, it is worth taking a tour of the grounds to get an idea of the size and destruction of the former fortress. As strategically important points the Fort Douaumont and Fort de Vaux were strongly fought in the battle around Verdun (1916). In addition to the artillery fire, which withstood the two fortresses relatively well, there were also heavy fighting in which countless soldiers lost their lives meaningless. The car park is ideal for walks (for example to the Vaux pond). If you keep your eyes peeled, you can discover many other testimonies and memorials from the Battle of Verdun on the forest trails. The paths and trails should not be left, as there is a serious danger of encountering duds or live ammunition (even grenades)! We discovered e.g. even at the edge of the main gravel path, the remains of a stalk grenade. More information and excellent photographic documentation: www.verdunbilder.de
