Guided tour of the War Memorial for France in External Operations
On the occasion of the European Heritage Days, the National Office of Combatants and War Victims organizes guided tours of the War Memorial for France in External Operations. Inaugurated on November 11, 2019, this high place of national memory pays tribute to the dead for France in theaters of operations since 1963. Composed of a sculpted group featuring six anonymous soldiers of the French army wearing a non-visible cerceuil, this monument testifies to the diversity of commitments, and associated memories. Alongside a guide-mediator, discover this place of meditation which has several meanings: those of the commitment, the recognition and the memory of the soldiers of the fourth generation of fire.
