- Get a feeling by walking through the trenches of Chattancourt (tranchée de Chattancourt - die Schützengräben von Chattancourt).
Chattancourt is a village surrounded by hills, situated at the base of the Argonne plateau. The village is crossed by a little creek that empties into the Meuse river. Close to our community is the Mort-Homme Hill, at 295 meters in height and one kilometer in surface area.
By the end of winter 1915/16, the battles turned very violent against Chattancourt, the Mort-Homme Hill and Hill 304. The village is reduced to a mass of ruins. On April 9th, the Germans completely occupied the Mort-Homme (Hill 295), lost it on the 20th of April, then re-conquered it on the 20th of May. However, they never took possession of Chattancourt.
