Go there and contact
The destroyed village of Vaux-Devant-Damloup, devastated by the Battle of Verdun in 1916, is a site steeped in history.
Vaux-devant-Damloup, named after the villages of Vaux and Damloup, was devastated by the Battle of Verdun in 1916. Vaux owes its name to its position in a wooded gorge, while Damloup takes its name from its patron saint, Saint Loup. World War I devastated Damloup, but it was rebuilt. Indeed, the people who returned after the exodus succeeded in rebuilding the village a few meters below its original site, as well as the Saint-Loup church, in 1928.
