The Trench of the Bayonets, located in Verdun, France, is a haunting reminder of the fierce battles that took place during World War I. This site is named for the eerie sight of bayonets sticking ... out of the ground, marking the location where French soldiers were buried alive during a German bombardment in 1916. Visitors can explore the preserved trench system, pay their respects at the memorial, and learn about the sacrifices made by soldiers on both sides. The best time to visit is during the spring or fall when the weather is mild. Immerse yourself in the local culture by attending ceremonies or events that honor the memory of those who fought in the Great War. Read more ▼
