THE RAVINE OF GENIUS
Visit to Ravin du Génie, a site housing powder magazines, materials, infirmary and kitchens at Lachalade.
On the western edge of the Haute-Chevauchée road, in 1915, the5th Army Corps' headquarters took advantage of the steep slope of the Sept-Fontaines ravine to store equipment and munitions. In the spring, the site housed powder magazines, materials, infirmary, kitchens and important water collection systems only 1,200 m from the front. The 1.2 km route, marked out with information panels, allows you to discover the daily life of the soldiers of the Great War. Guided tours are available. Experienced eyes will be able to detect the remains.
