GERMAN CONSENVOYE CEMETERY
Cemetery along the 964 road, containing the bodies of German and Austrian soldiers killed in the Verdun region
Buried under crosses or in mass graves, the 11,146 bodies in this cemetery are those of German and Austrian soldiers killed in the Verdun region. Built in 1920 by the French services, in 1943 the cemetery received 60,000 additional bodies from the provisional plots on the left bank. Consenvoye thus became the largest German burial ground in the département. The cemetery of the vanquished features black crosses, with no concern for alignment or ornament.
