The Historial de la Grande Guerre Museum

When you go through the entrance of the Chateau de Péronne to get to the museum. You go up an old stone stairway that leads to the very modern museum. The Historial de la Grande Guerre Museum was built in 1992, by architect Henri Ciriani. The building is a mixture of white cement walls and glass.Some of the exhibits are laid out in what looks like open military graves.

I found the museum a little short on content and the items were to clean almost unused. I thought the museum at Albert was better it had more items some still with the mud from the trenches but that is my personal view you must judge for your self
