WOLRD WAR ONE PRISONERS NATIONAL NECROPOLIS
Ville de Sarrebourg (Alain de la Fuente)
On Verdun Street, you may visit the National Necropolis of World War One Prisoners. French soldiers and captured civilians lay here: they perished in German camps. This graveyard was inaugurated on September 12th 1926 (with 13298 graves and 2 ossuaries). Fredy Stoll was a prisoner in Graffenwohr, Bavaria. With the help of his fellow prisoners, he sculpted a landmark out of a granite block: you may see this sculpture at the end of the central alley.
The site has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2023.
