This Is the Moment World War I Ended (Real Recording)

On November 11th, 1918, at exactly 11:00 a.m., the guns of the Great War finally fell silent.
For four years, the Western Front thundered day and night with machine guns, artillery, and death. The Armistice to end the war was signed at 5:10 a.m., but the ceasefire didn’t take effect until 11:00 a.m. — a six-hour gap that cost the lives of more than 2,700 men after peace had already been agreed upon.

This short captures the final moments before and after the guns stopped — the end of one of the deadliest conflicts in human history.
The sound you hear is an authentic recording from the Armistice moment, preserved from original battlefield sources.
