About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The grand fortification was described by its designer, the great military engineer Vauban, as 'The Queen of Fortresses'. It is still used by the French Army, but the outer works and area beyond the ramparts are now a public park; it is possible to walk right round the Citadelle, a distance of about two kilometres, and there are children's play areas, a zoo, and a funfair. During both World Wars the Citadelle was used by the occupying Germans, and there are memorials in the fosse to members of the Resistance of both wars, executed at that site.
