The river in northern France that was the scene of several battles during World War I is the Somme River. The most notable battle, the Battle of the Somme, took place in 1916 and is one of the largest and bloodiest battles in history. It was characterized by trench warfare and resulted in significant casualties on both the Allied and German sides. The area remains a significant site for remembrance and commemoration of the war.
