Within the Collarmont cemetery rest the valiant French soldiers who heroically stood up to the German army during the invasion of August 22, 1914 in Anderlues. Collarmont is located on a promontory which separates the valley of the Haie from that of the Haine. The graves are lined up in rows, only red rose bushes provide a splash of bright color. There are four types of emblems: Latin cross, Muslim stele, Jewish stele, stele for another faith or free thinker.

The Battle of Colarmont
In the Lalues district, on August 22, the machine guns of the French soldiers, strategically positioned at the top of slag heap No. 4, proved to be particularly effective. The German soldiers bypass the French positions through the woods and Mont-Sainte-Aldegonde. The men engage in hand-to-hand and bayonet combat. Following the massacre and the burning of some seventy buildings, the staff of the Red Cross is largely called upon. Faced with the number of killed and wounded, the carts of the farmers are requisitioned.
