Site de Morette, World War II memorial and military cemetery in La Balme-de-Thuy, France.

Site de Morette is a memorial site on the D909 road, straddling La Balme-de-Thuy and Thônes, south of the Glières plateau. It comprises the Glières national necropolis, with 105 graves marked by bronze crosses, the departmental Resistance museum in a 1794 alpine chalet, and the departmental Deportation memorial. The necropolis centres on a tall light-grey stone monument with a carved Latin cross, set before rows of small crosses and red flowers on pale gravel.

The Glières national necropolis was inaugurated in April 1944, after the mayor of Thônes opposed the German occupier's plan for a mass grave and had the dead buried at the Morette field. It became a national military cemetery on 5 February 1949 and took the name nécropole nationale des Glières in 1984. General de Gaulle paid tribute there on 5 November 1944.

The museum opened in 1964 on the initiative of the Association des Rescapés des Glières, the survivors' association, and became a departmental museum fourteen years later. It occupies an alpine chalet dated 1794. The bronze crosses on the graves were donated by the Paccard foundry in Annecy-le-Vieux.

The grounds are easy to walk through and allow you to see all areas of the cemetery and museum in a short visit. It is advisable to visit during the warmer months, as the alpine location becomes less accessible in winter.

On 5 November 1944, General de Gaulle came to Morette to pay tribute to the fighters. The bronze crosses on the graves were donated by the Paccard foundry, and the wooden crosses were removed between 1960 and 1963.
