Military cemetery with a mass grave containing the remains of 2,980 German soldiers and 2,645 unknown soldiers

The oldest cemetery, established during the 1870 war or during the occupation that followed it. The grave of an officer who "died of the fatigues of war" is still there. Surrounding him, forming a crown, are the bodies of soldiers who fell in the vicinity during the 1914 war. Each grave, marked by a massive stone cross, bears the name, rank, regiment, date of birth and date of death of the person buried there. The graves of a few French soldiers, who probably fell on patrol, can be seen here, as most are designated as unbekannt, unknown. They can only be recognized by their names, where they exist, and by the inscription " franzose ". Above and beside this cemetery, the bodies of Germans found throughout the area are grouped together. Two large ossuaries contain the remains of unidentified soldiers. On a plaque is engraved the number of 11,685 German soldiers who died in 1914-1918. A mass grave contains 2,980 German soldiers and 2,645 unknown soldiers. A notebook allows visitors to record their impressions of the site.
