Villy-la-Ferté National Cemetery is the final resting place of 107 soldiers who died for France during the Second World War. Forming the garrison at the Ouvrage de la Ferté fortifications, these men were killed during the violent battles that took place from 16 to 18 May 1940. Several weeks after this enemy attack, the bodies of these defenders were recovered by a German disciplinary battalion. Thirteen were hastily buried in shell holes. The exact location of their graves was never revealed, much to the distress of their families. It was not until 1973 that, thanks to information given by a German war veteran, their graves were found, thus revealing precious details of the sacrifice made by the Burgundian lieutenant and his men.
