During the First World War, the local population called Hartmannswillerkopf "the man-eater." And rightly so. This is confirmed by the disturbingly numerous remnants from that time that can still be found on the mountain today. Ruins that silently tell the story of this catastrophe, which claimed the lives of 30,000 people. This man-made disaster should not be forgotten. Dear viewers, we're glad you've found our channel.
