CIMETIÈRE
Military cemetery with 51 graves of men from different infantry regiments who died during the war between 1914 and 1915
Remarkable graves in the cemetery include that of painter Jehanne Farine, Sister Gabrielle, chevalier de la Légion d'honneur, mayor and senator Michel Rufin, and Doctor Louis Daniel Caillet, who died of cholera in 1849, during a cholera epidemic he actively fought. His tomb bears the attributes of the deceased's profession: the serpent, the book and the olive branches, and the inscription specifies that he was "a victim of his devotion". His grave is listed as a Monument Historique. Finally, a military plot contains 51 graves of men from various infantry regiments who died between September 1914 and February 1915, probably in the hospital that appeared at the very start of the war and is still active today.
