2. Zoo d'AmnévilleAmneville The Amneville Zoo is a French zoological park of the Grand Est region, located in the Moselle valley, between Metz and the Luxembourg border, in the town of Amnéville. About 1,500 animals of 360 species are presented on 18 hectares. It is headed by its founder, Michel Louis, since 1986. Formed as a worker cooperative, it is owned by its employees-cooperators. It is the only French zoo to present a show of tamed tigers, a controversial feature that allowed it to increase its attendance but also earned it to be demoted to the rank of temporary member of the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria , and then to be excluded of it.

3. Ouvrage de la FerteLa Ferte Sur Chiers Ouvrage La Ferté, also known as Ouvrage Villy-La Ferté, is a petit ouvrage of the Maginot Line, located in the Fortified Sector of Montmédy, facing Belgium. The ouvrage lies between the towns of Villy and La Ferté-sur-Chiers. It possesses two combat blocks linked by an underground gallery. The westernmost position in its sector, it was a comparatively weakly armed fortification in an exposed position that left it vulnerable to isolation and attack. After a sustained attack during the Battle of France the position was overwhelmed by German forces and was destroyed with its entire garrison killed. The fighting at La Ferté was the heaviest of any position in the Maginot Line. It is preserved as a war memorial. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
5. Fort DouaumontVerdun Fort Douaumont was the largest and highest fort on the ring of 19 large defensive works which had protected the city of Verdun, France since the 1890s. By 1915, the French General Staff had concluded that even the best-protected forts of Verdun could not resist bombardments from the German 420 mm Gamma guns. These new super-heavy howitzers had easily taken several large Belgian forts out of action in August 1914. Fort Douaumont and other Verdun forts were judged ineffective and had been partly disarmed and left virtually undefended since 1915. On 25 February 1916, Fort Douaumont was entered and occupied without a fight by a small German raiding party comprising only 19 officers and 79 men.

2012 Cirque de Navacelles - Frankrijk
Gelegen boven het kleine dorp Navacelles en nabij Saint Maurice de Navacelles, vormt het Cirque de Navacelles (keteldal van Navacelles) een geologisch spektakel, uniek in Europa. Vanaf de top van een duizelingwekkend balkon, is het Cirque de Navacelles, een reusachtige trechtervormig kom uitgediept door de verzakking van de plateaus, een van de meest indrukwekkende locaties om te bezichtigen. Onderin het steilwandige erosiedal, 300 meter lager dan het kalksteenplateau, valt La Vis in watervallen naar Navacelles. Het dorp hangt aan de rotsen en de gecultiveerde velden omringen een klein kalkreliëf. Het geheel bestaat uit hellingen bedekt met rotsen die een groot amfitheater afbeelden, waarvan de kalkstaven de rijen banken zouden kunnen vormen.
