Mill and museum, here the French army fought the decisive battle for the French Revolution in 1792

Here, in 1792, during the Battle of Valmy, French troops stood against the Prussian armies. A simple windmill on a hill… which became a symbol of resistance.

The Saint-Roch chapel appeared in the 17th century, well before the La Harazée national necropolis next to which it is located. The latter contains the remains of 1,672 soldiers who fell during the Battle of Argonne.

This impressive American WWI memorial was dedicated in 1937 to commemorate the victory of the American First Army during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive (26 September – 11 November 1918). The 54-metre-high Doric granite column, designed by John Russell Pope, is topped by a statue symbolising liberty. The monument stands on the hill of Montfaucon, where a medieval monastery once stood and where the Americans achieved a strategic victory in 1918.

Tips: Climb the 234 steps to the viewing platform for a panoramic view of the former battlefield. Read the inscriptions at the foot of the monument with the names of the participating divisions.
