From Péronne to Albert, the route of remembrance brings us on the footsteps of World War I soldiers.
The village of Cléry sur Somme is at 5 km from the Historial of the Great War in Péronne, at 20 km from the shelters’ museum in Albert and the military cemeteries of the Poppy’s country.
The national necropolis is alongside the A1 highway, at the end of the village, in direction of Albert. The grave of the Australian soldier, in the village’s cemetery, witnesses the fights that took place around Cléry in 1916. Likewise, the group composed by town hall and the school, rebuilt thanks to Mr. Fenaille, evokes the destruction of the village during World War I.
