Cimetière militaire Français de la Marfée
The French military cemetery is the final resting place of soldiers from the First World War:
1200 in a mass grave and 528 in individual graves. On August 26, 27 and 28, 1914, Breton and Vendée regiments resisted and pushed back the enemy: they would only retreat on orders from the general staff.
Colonel Marolles died on August 27th; his last words were: "I die content, my soldiers are brave men."
