Centre d'histoire du Mémorial 14-18, World War I museum in Souchez, France.

The Centre d'Histoire du Memorial 14-18 displays over 300 photographs, military documents, and personal objects from World War I in seven thematic sections.

The museum opened its doors on June 9, 2015, following a design by architect Pierre-Louis Faloci, featuring distinct black concrete structures reminiscent of wartime blockhouses.

The museum presents educational materials in multiple languages, featuring military records of 579,606 soldiers who perished between 1914 and 1918 through digital tablets.

Visitors can access the museum at 102 Rue Pasteur from April to November, Wednesday through Friday 10:00-18:00, and weekends 11:00-18:00, with free admission.

The exhibition includes 60 hours of period films, animated maps, and previously unreleased photographs documenting the war in Nord-Pas-de-Calais.
