Notre Dame de Lorette National Cemetery

Ablain-Saint-Nazaire, France · built 1920

Notre Dame de Lorette (French pronunciation: [nɔtʁ(ə) dam də lɔʁɛt]), also known as Ablain St.-Nazaire French Military Cemetery, is the world's largest French military cemetery. It is the name of a ridge, basilica, and French national cemetery northwest of Arras at the village of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire. The high point of the hump-backed ridge stands 165 metres high and – with Vimy Ridge – utterly dominates the otherwise flat Douai plain and the town of Arras.
