Culture and History
The central section of the Souterrain de Ruyaulcourt is 1,150 metres long and has two tracks, allowing cargo barges to pass one another. The ventilation station has two rail-mounted turbines, including a reserve turbine. Its building contains a control room with a bow window facing the turbines, an electrical control centre, a diesel emergency generator and a garage.
The Église Saint-Pierre d’Ytres was built in 1930 by the architect Louis Faille. Stone from Saint-Maximin and brick were used in its construction. The church is known for its stained-glass windows designed by Raphaël Lardeur.
The wider region around Ytres is home to the Museum of the Great War, a museum, the Abbaye de Vaucelles, a historic site, the Château de Beaurevoir, a castle, and the Abbaye Notre-Dame de la Brelle, a monastery.
