On the occasion of the commemoration of the beginning of the Great War, photo report on major memorials (French, US, British, Canadian and German monuments and cemeteries, ossuaries) as well as on the websites of major battlefields where you can still almost hundred years later, see the scars of battles (battlefields, trenches, craters and minefields, destroyed villages, ancient forts, mines and saps, etc.). Images at mid-height make possible to locate these sites, considered strategic at the time, in their environment and to understand why these locations were selected at the time by the staffs of the two camps. This is also an opportunity to look at the work of nature, one hundred years on end, to gradually take possession.
