Today, this necropolis contains 7,526 bodies: 3,533 (46 of whom could not be identified) resting in individual and collective graves, and 3,993 (3,080 of whom could not be identified) in the ossuary. The first work carried out by the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge (German War Graves Commission) was completed in 1928, and the old wooden crosses were replaced with stone crosses in 1972. The German soldiers buried in this necropolis were killed on the Chemin des Dames, primarily during the fighting in the autumn of 1914, the spring of 1915, and the battles of 1917 and 1918.

At the center of the Chemin des Dames, the reconstructed village of Cerny-en-Laonnois is a major memorial center: the French cemetery is complemented by a huge German cemetery, two ossuaries, a memorial chapel, and a British monument. It was here that military and political authorities most often visited the Chemin des Dames after the war. A completely reconstructed site, it appears modest in comparison to the many events that made it one of the most disputed points of the Great War from 1914 to 1918. The memorial chapel, erected in 1951 and dedicated to reconciliation, is part of a complex that has included a lantern of the dead since 1960, intended to illuminate the "field of the dead" with a blue light.

After the Blessed Virgin Mary, "Saint MARIE MADELEINE" is the woman most frequently mentioned in the writings of the New Testament. Originally called "Mary of Magdala" after her place of origin on the Sea of Galilee, the now common name "Mary Magdalene" has evolved over time. According to the biblical accounts, she is one of the women and men who followed Jesus of Nazareth. According to the testimony of the Evangelists, Mary Magdalene is also one of the three women who, after the Sabbath rest, anointed the body of Jesus Christ on Easter morning after the crucifixion and burial, and the very first person to ever meet the Risen Christ. In theology, she is therefore also known as the "Apostle of the Apostles." The feast day of Saint Marie-Madeleine in the calendar of saints is July 22nd.

On either side of the Chapelle-Mémorial there are two large cemeteries: one French and one German. The French necropolis, built between 1919 and 1925, has 5,150 graves, including 2,386 in an ossuary. It is also the resting place of 54 Russian prisoners of war and many tirailleurs from Africa and Madagascar, who died during the Nivelle offensives. Behind the French cemetery is the German military cemetery, established from 1919 onwards under the Treaty of Versailles. It has 7,526 graves, almost 4,000 of which are in an ossuary. In 1972, the site was redesigned with simple stone crosses. Together with the chapel and the “Lanterne des morts”, this place is a powerful symbol of memory and reconciliation.

Marcel Duquenoy; Small memorial stone along the D18 between the Ferme de la Royère and the Ferme de Malval. It commemorates Marcel Duquenoy, a 20-year-old aspiring officer from Calais in the 350th Infantry Regiment, who was killed in the wood opposite the monument on 6 May 1917 during the Battle of La Malmaison. The inscription is from his parents: “En souvenir de notre fils disparu dans le bois en face” – a personal tribute in a landscape marked by collective loss.

Jean Dauly Memorial; This sober monument commemorates Jean Dauly, a soldier in the 350th Infantry Regiment, who was killed on 6 May 1917 at the age of 20 during heavy fighting in the forest opposite the current location. It stands along the D18 between the Ferme de La Royère and the Ferme de Malval. The inscription bears witness to the personal loss: “Regretté de sa mère, de toute sa famille et de ses comarades. Priez pour lui”.

During the First World War, Cerny-en-Laonnois was a strategic point along the Chemin des Dames, a ridge fiercely contested by French and German troops. In September 1914, the village was taken by the Germans, who used it as a defensive post. They dug deep underground networks in the limestone, which served as shelters and munitions stores. In the spring of 1917, the area became the scene of the Nivelle Offensive, a large-scale French attack that resulted in heavy losses and eventually led to mutinies within the French army. Cerny-en-Laonnois was completely destroyed by artillery fire and fighting. After the war, the village was rebuilt a little further south. Today, the military cemeteries, the memorial chapel and the “Lanterne des Morts” bear witness to the immense human suffering that took place here.
