The Chemin des Dames: Today, it is a small county road of 47 km long (D18), which operates on a narrow plateau between the valleys of the Ailette (north) and the Aisne (the south). The road starts from the hamlet of Vauxrains (west) to Berry au Bac (east). Every kilometer, a milestone on which is shown as "Chemin des Dames". On April 16, 1917 at 6:00 am begins the great offensive commanded by General Nivelle, to end the endless trench warfare. Nearly a million people were gathered between Soissons (west) and Reims (east). Without an appropriate strategy, it has been a dismal failure for the French army, which cause the largest movement of mutinies of war and the resignation of Nivelle.
