Built in 1914 as a resting place for the bodies of the soldiers who had died in the town’s hospitals, Commercy National Cemetery was further developed up until 1922 so that it could accommodate the bodies exhumed from makeshift military cemeteries in the region of Vaucouleurs. Some 2,200 French soldiers, two British and two Russian soldiers killed during the First World War and a soldier who ‘died for France’ in 1940, Alfred Boiaubert (grave n° 1 785), have been laid to rest in this place.
