Tips from the Community
Wancourt was captured on 12 April 1917 after very heavy fighting and the advance was continued on the following days. The cemetery, called at first Cojeul Valley Cemetery, or River Road Cemetery, was opened about ten days later; it was used until October 1918, but was in German hands from March 1918 until 26 August, when the Canadian Corps recaptured Wancourt. At the Armistice, the cemetery contained 410 graves, but was very greatly increased in the following years when graves were brought in from a number of small cemeteries and isolated positions on the battlefields south-east of Arras. The cemetery now contains 1936 burials and commemorations of the First World War. 829 of the burials are unidentified but there are special memorials to 76 casualties known or believed to be buried among them, and to 20 who were buried in Signal Trench Cemetery whose graves were destroyed in later battles.

The Maroeuil Marsh natural area offers a pleasant walk along the Scarpe River, with interesting flora and fauna. The signposting is illustrated by the small Vertigo de Des Moulins snail, which you can try to spot on the marsh plants.

To think that soldiers took refuge behind the church and left a trace of themselves for our freedom 🕊️ by leaving us these graffiti. It is my duty of memory to create a must-see on this place full of history to honor them and to show them all my gratitude I went to the grave of one of them killed in Bouchoir on August 9, 1918 (Somme) a few months before the armistice. William David Boag 21 years old 🇨🇦 Never forget 💮. Come and contemplate this place. Thank you Franck.
