More than 90 years ago the battle of verdun began. Everyone, which concerns itself with the First World War, encounters sooner or later the name Verdun. The name is standing for more than 1000 years of common german - french history.

Begun with "Karl der Grosse" one up to the hereditaryness and to the senseless material battle in the first world war.
Today germans and french are good neighbours and meet regularly at monuments and graves of both nations.
The goal of the "Verdun 14-18" project is it to obtain a extensive view of a partial aspect of the first world war
as possible. A goal of these sides is not to glorify the war.
