Traves (French pronunciation: [tʁav]) is a commune in the Haute-Saône department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.
Former SS Standartenfuhrer Joachim Peiper bought property and lived near the village from 27 April 1972 until his assassination on 14 July 1976. One or more arsonists set his home afire, he was asphyxiated and his body burnt. [3]
