A very beautiful lake, well worth a visit. I first visited it in 1993 on a tour of Lorraine. Mirabelle plums are grown everywhere nearby, and they also produce very good mirabelle plum schnapps.

In the village of Pannes (in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department), the Monument aux Morts was inaugurated on 2 August 1923 in memory of the victims of the First World War. During the war, Pannes was occupied by the German army and was only liberated on 12 September 1918 by General Patton's troops. The original monument contained a statue that unfortunately has not survived the ravages of time. The current version is therefore no longer identical to the original. The inauguration was widely reported at the time in the newspaper L’Éclair de l’Est, with a speech by Mr Noël, in which he honoured the names and stories of the fallen.

The former German military cemetery of Altenweiher was located near Saint-Mihiel in the Meuse department, a region that was badly affected during the First World War. The cemetery was built by the German troops to bury their fallen soldiers in the area, often near field hospitals or strategic positions. After the war, many of these smaller cemeteries, including Altenweiher, were cleared and the remains transferred to larger collective cemeteries such as those at Consenvoye or Andilly, as part of a wider regrouping of German war graves by the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge. Today, little remains of Altenweiher, but it stands as a quiet reminder of the scale of human loss in this region.
