Remembrance of the First World War

Féy’s German military cemetery is a First World War cemetery. It was established in 1922 as a collective cemetery after the 1914–1918 war. The cemetery is the resting place of 2,006 German soldiers from the First World War, including 500 unidentified soldiers. This means that approximately one in four soldiers is unidentified. Established in 1922, the cemetery is clearly situated in the postwar period; the number of unidentified soldiers adds a specific aspect to its historical significance.

Wine-growing history and walks

Féy’s wine-growing history spans several distinct periods. In the 17th and 18th centuries, Féy was mainly inhabited by winegrowers. A much later milestone came in 1995, when Bernard Grandidier decided to revive a vineyard on the hillside near his fields. The village’s earlier identity as a wine-growing community and the later decision to revive the vineyard represent different aspects of the local wine-growing history.

Domaine Sommy covers 3 hectares and produces 15,000 bottles a year; this annual production volume may change.

The paths around Féy offer lovely walks along the hillsides. In addition to leisure activities and historical sites, spending time outdoors is another possible reason to visit. Those choosing a destination based on these interests will find a combination of a family theme park, walks, wine-growing history and remembrance of the First World War.
