Senlis was entered and damaged by the Germans on the 2nd September 1914, and evacuated by them a week later. It was not involved in the fighting on the Aisne and the Marne in 1918; but during those operations it became a French Hospital centre. The British 63rd Casualty Clearing Station was at Senlis for twelve days in August 1918.
Senlis French National Cemetery was begun in June 1918, and closed in December 1921.
There are now over 100, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this cemetery. The majority belonged to the 15th (Scottish) and 34th Divisions, who fell in July and August 1918.
