Résumé

As the last eye-witnesscs to the Great War die one by one, it is increasingly important to preserve the memory of this conflict, which was a véritable European civil war. The Marne dcpartment was among the mort badly scarred, hoth because of the trench warfare and needless hutchery of the Argonne and Champagne offensives, which took place in its northern region, and the war of movement of the two Battles of the Marne in its western region. The Mondement, Ferme de Navarin and Blanc-Mont monuments, the Dormans Memorial and the military cemeteries, whose number and size bear witness to the intensity of the fighting, are the focal points of this guided tour which is aimed at all those who wish to understand and meditate on the reasons for these sacrifices. The communal war memorials, in contrast, are the testimony of the civilian populations and veterans, expressed through a variety of symhols and works of art.
