This small, rather nondescript village in northern France is steeped in World War I history. Visit to gain insight into a conflict that changed our world. At the Franco Australian Museum discover more about the events that unfolded here in 1918. Pay your respects at the poignant Australian War Memorial and stroll around the streets of the quiet village to learn more about the town’s Australian connections. Villers-Bretonneux was a typical small town with a thriving textile industry that flourished until the onset of World War I. In April 1918, the town witnessed the world’s first tank battle between the British and the Germans. Although the Germans were victorious, they were later defeated by Australian forces, who succeeded in recapturing the village. Start by visiting the Australian War Memorial, located in the Villers-Bretonneux Military Cemetery north of town. Walk around the well-groomed lawns, which hold graves of hundreds of Australian and Commonwealth soldiers and act as a sobering reminder of the events that happened here. Back in town, visit the Victoria School, built using donations from school children in the Australian state of Victoria. Look for signs reading “N’oublions jamais l’Australie,” meaning “Let us never forget Australia.” These are displayed in every classroom. Watch for other street signs with an Australian connection, including the main thoroughfare, Rue de Melbourne. Visit the Australian War Museum, where you can examine war memorabilia including uniforms, posters, weaponry and photographs. The most moving time of year to visit Villers-Bretonneux is during the Anzac Day ceremony, which takes place annually on April 25 and commemorates efforts of the Australian troops. Continue your World War I education at nearby Adelaide Cemetery, located on the western outskirts of the town, before investigating other local wartime sites, including the Tank Corps Memorial at Pozières and the British Crucifix Corner Cemetery east of the town. Villers-Bretonneux is located about 16 miles (25 kilometres) by car from Amiens. - Villers-Bretonneux Hotel Deals - Vacation Rentals in Villers-Bretonneux ![The Originals Boutique Hôtel Amiens Sud](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/77000000/76990000/76987000/76986947/53f095af_y.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=340&ch=150) ### The Originals Boutique Hôtel Amiens Sud 73 Avenue Valery Giscard d'Estaing, Amiens, Somme CA $81 CA $94 total Nov 9 - Nov 10 includes taxes & fees Stay at this 3-star business-friendly hotel in Amiens.
