Last weekend myself, James and Nick travelled to Verdun to explore a few sights from the 1916 battlefield. I've updated Scrivsland with a report and loads of photos from the first part of our battlefied tour including Forts Vaux and Douaumont.

Very nice. We're thinking about going next summer. Normandy plus WWI sites. DM |

Thank you. I have updated the blog with the second instalment of the trip including the Vauban Fortress, the destroyed town of Fleury-devant-Douaumont, the Douaumont Ossuary, Ouvrage de Froideterre and Bois Des Caures.

I've been there last year, and was very taken by the ossuary. When you see those endless lists of names… |

Thanks chaps. The Ossuary is indeed a poignant place. |
