Notre-Dame de Lorette - a photo on Flickriver

            Le cimetière militaire Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, aussi dit nécropole nationale de Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, est un cimetière militaire inauguré en 1925.
Environ 45 000 combattants y reposent, dont la moitié dans des tombes individuelles.
Sa surface est de 13 hectares.
Le carré musulman compte 576 tombes orientées vers La Mecque.

Il est situé sur une colline près d'Arras (Pas-de-Calais), sur le territoire de la commune d'Ablain-Saint-Nazaire.

Notre Dame de Lorette, also known as Ablain St.-Nazaire French Military Cemetery, is the world's largest French military cemetery. It is the name of a ridge, basilica, and French national cemetery northwest of Arras at the village of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire. The high point of the hump-backed ridge stands 165 metres high and - with Vimy Ridge - utterly dominates the otherwise flat Douai plain and the town of Arras.
