Visit of The Hartmannswillerkopf Franco-German Historial of World War 1
Visit of the Franco-German Historial of the Great War at the Hartmannswillerkopf, a multi-faceted tool, both historical, tourist and memorial, and above all educational. It offers a broad vision of the events during the First World War, while leaving a central place to the Hartmannswillerkopf - Vieil Armand in order to serve as a link with the site and the neighbouring national monument and to allow visitors to better decipher it.
Beyond the local vision, the Historial questions the evolution of Franco-German relations and the long construction of a relationship of friendship, from the individual level, beginning after the war when combatants from both sides met on the battlefields, to the international ceremonies, notably those of 3 August 2014 and 10 November 2017. The Historial and the entire site are closed from 13 November to 1 April.
