About Renting a Car at Verdun Center

Verdun in Meuse is a city of profound historical significance from World War I, located 75 km west of Metz. With one rental company in downtown, you can explore the battlefields, memorials, and the Meuse Valley at your own pace.

The beautiful valley of the Meuse River extends south toward Saint-Mihiel, 30 km away. Plan for at least a full day for battlefield tours - the distances between memorials are short but there is much to see. Drive along the Voie Sacrée (D1916) heading south toward Bar-le-Duc for a historical experience.
