Museum of the Great War (Historial de la Grande Guerre)

Historial de la Grande Guerre: Raw Somme History and Trench Life

4.9 (28)

Skip the glorified war hero propaganda. This museum actually focuses on the grit of daily trench life, displaying personal letters and gear from all sides. Spend two hours here before hitting the Somme battlefields. If you are coming from Paris, book the day trip specifically covering the Australian sectors at Villers-Bretonneux to actually see the geography behind the artifacts. It is heavy, bleak, and necessary. Avoid weekends unless you like fighting crowds of school groups.

Address: Place André Audinot, Péronne, Hauts-de-France, 80200
