The German soldiers who died in the Battle of Mühlhausen in August 1914 are buried there, including the first casualty of World War I. It's a bit off the beaten track and very well maintained.

The Illfurth German War Cemetery was established by the French military authorities in April 1920. As a collective cemetery, it housed some of the fallen soldiers from the battles of August 7 and 17, 1914. The transfer of war dead to Illfurth, who had been provisionally buried in 64 municipalities and districts during the war or who had died in French captivity, ended in 1924. Among those reburied was the first German casualty of the 1914-1918 War on the Western Front, Lieutenant Albert Mayer, who fell on August 2, 1914, while on patrol. The first French soldier also lost his life in this battle. Several memorials erected in field cemeteries during the war were also relocated to Illfurth.

The site is in the middle of the forest, but a good path makes access easy.

For me it is the first top that has a cross (short cifix) in the middle.

The bridge has an eye-catching effect, unusual, in a beautiful landscape surrounding the canal.

The Hunungue Canal is no longer used for shipping. The locks are no longer needed either. A beautiful look into the past. A beautiful environment in the nature reserve.
