The Chicourt National Cemetery lies southwest of the town of Morhange. It is home to soldiers who died for France during the Battle of Lorraine on 20 August 1914. The cemetery, built in 1914 by the German army during the battle of Morhange, was updated in 1915 and 1924. It holds 129 French soldiers, 128 of whom lie in ossuaries, and 50 German soldiers in ossuaries also.
Two monuments were erected respectively in homage to soldiers of the 146th infantry regiment and the Bavarian soldiers who died on 20 August 1914.
