This image shows the emplacement of the station
before construction. It's on the N35,
the Voie Sacrée, the "Holy Highway" that heads
into Verdun.
The vicious battle here during WWI turned the tables with a heroic
defense by the French
and Allied armies. Over the 10 months in 1916 French and German forces
had 300.000 dead and missing and 400.000 wounded.
