Notre
Dame
de
Lorette
is
a
large,
beautiful,
and
moving
French
Military
Cemetery.
The
number
of
graves
is
immense,
and
somewhat
overwhelming.
In
the
middle
of
the
cemetery
is
the
church
of
the
same
name,
with
beautiful
stained
class
windows.
There
is
also
a
tomb
to
the
unknown
soldier,
with
coffins
inside,
as
well
as
a
box
of
ashes
from
victims
of
concentration
camps,
and
most
major
French
wars
of
recent.
There
is
an
honour
guard
that
stands
watch,
so
the
dead
are
never
alone
-
over
3000
volunteers
take
on
this
task,
many
of
who
were
present
at
the
front
gate,
and
in
the
tomb.
Across
from
the
cemetery
is
the
ring
of
names
or
ring
of
remembrance
-
and
immense
and
powerful
list
of
all
those
who
died
in
WWI,
regardless
of
country,
rank,
religion,
nationality,
or
which
side
of
the
war
they
were
on,
as
the
memorial
was
constructed
in
a
time
of
peace.
It
is
beautiful
and
so
incredibly
moving.
We
are
so
glad
that
we
stopped
to
spend
time
time
here
and
pay
our
respects
and
remember
those
who
fought
so
that
others
may
live.
Without
a
doubt,
highly
recommend.
