Somme Trench Museum

The museum is inside a tunnel that dates back to the 13th century, and was rehabilitated into an air-raid shelter in 1938. It’s 10 m below ground, and explores the life of soldiers in the trenches during the 1st of July 1916 offensive. Display cases present various objects, material and weapons used in that period. They illustrate the evolution in weaponry and the appearance of new technologies such as gas and tanks.
