Of the village of Mont-Saint-Quentin, nothing remains but the basements of the houses, with here and there bits of broken walls, tottering beams and heaps of rubbish. The church, a favourite pilgrimage, in memory of the former abbey, was totally destroyed, as was also the castle.
The ruins of the castle, and a German observation-post of concrete, with underground passages and shelters, are at the entrance to the village, on the left, about 50 yards from N. 37.
There is a fine panoramic view over the Somme Valley and Péronne.
On leaving Mont-Saint-Quentin, N. 37 descends to Péronne. Enter the town by the Faubourg de Bretagne.
