These Stunning Pictures Reveal What The World War 1 Battlefields Look Like After 100 Years

#8 The Lochnagar crater in France

The images that we are about to show you are the battlefields from the World War 1 after One Whole Century. These images will make you curse the war even more.

This is The Lochnagar crater in France. This beauty was created after British forces detonated 24 tons of ammonal in a packed mine underneath German forces on July 1st, 1916. Look at this thing 100 years later.

#7 Newfoundland Memorial Park

Who would say that once upon a time, a deadly war took place on this piece of beauty. The war was fought on this land. You can still see the land bearing trenches, shell crater and wire pickets.

We have more such outstanding images ahead. Do not miss them.

#6 The Iconic Football

Look at this football properly. This is arguably the most iconic football ever. It was kicked by a British Regiment - The London Irish Rifles- across No Mans Land on Sept 25th 1915 as they attacked German trenches. This is the same field on which the battle took place.

#5 Chateau de Soupir

This is the reconstructed gateway of the Chateau de Soupir in northern France that was destroyed in the war, mainly due to the Second Battle of the Aisne. This is beautiful, isn't it?

#4 W Beach At Gallipoli

Let us tell you that this beach as seen the most deadly fight during the World War 1. The Gallipoli campaign witnessed some of the bloodiest fighting between the British and French troops against the Turkish between April 1915 and January 1916.

#3 Chemin des Dames

This place always amazes me because of its beauty. This is exactly where German soldiers took refuge in a limestone quarry from 1915, which they referred to as Dragon's Cavern.

#2 Tyne Cot Cemetery

This place was blessed by thousands of soldiers during the world war 1. During the war, it served as the resting place for 11,954 soldiers who died in the Ypres Salient on the Western Front. This is also the largest cemetery for Commonwealth forces in the world.

#1 Passchendaele

Another unfortunate place to suffer the heat of world war 1. All these photos of world war 1 will son be available for the public display.
