CIMETIÈRE BRITANNIQUE DE CAIX Somme, France
Le village de Caix est situé à 28 kilomètres environ au sud-est d'Amiens, à mi-chemin entre la route d'Amiens à Saint-Quentin (N29) et la route d'Amiens à Roye (D934). Le cimetière se trouve au sud du village.
À partir du centre du village, sur la route principale (D28) en direction de Beaucourt-en-Santerre, tournez à gauche pour prendre la route D41 en direction de Le Quesnel. À quelque 200 mètres plus loin sur cette route se trouvent le cimetière communal local et le premier panneau de la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth. Tournez à gauche juste avant le cimetière local et suivez la petite route. Le cimetière britannique est à droite.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
