Cambrai Tank 1917 in Flesquières, with a tank recovered in 1988, presenting many photographs and souvenirs of the time.

When you enter Cambrai Tank 1917 (or Cambrai Battle Interpretation Center), you will take a step into history. Indeed, this place bears its name well, since it contains the tank "Deborah 51", one of the tanks that was on the field during the battle of Cambrai. You will start by immersing yourself in history, with many photographs and souvenirs of the time. Then, you will go down to a depth of 6 meters to meet this tank, found in 1998. Finally, a 20-minute film will teach you more about this era.

Very interesting story on how the tank was found deep underground and recovered. Also very personal tales of the troops involved. Such a unique design of building which itself is partially underground. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Very interesting despite being a smallish museum. Genuine WWI tank and related artifacts, and history of the weapon that changed the tactics of war.

Actually, for just one main exhibit it was more interesting than I thought! Really well done museum! Just needs more English books. :-)
