Cenotaph to a French soldier fallen during the First World War in the shape of a wooden cross covered with a French helmet in the Main de Massiges in Marne region in north-eastern France. The Main de Massiges was one of the major sites of the First World War from 1914 to 1918. The area is restored using the original artefacts found in the ground by the Main de Massiges Association since 2009.
