Chemin de la
Memoire
Chemin de la
Memoire was
opened in 1993 to commemorate the bicentenary of the start of the wars, it lies
at the foot of a small hill which is topped by the chapel of Petit-Lucs. The
path that leads up to the memorial has panels of some of the main figures
involved, on the left side in French and on the right in English. A wooden
bridge spans a moat leading into the state of the art memorial. Inside it is has
a somber yet peaceful atmosphere with the sound of running water and low
lighting.
Set in a peaceful meadow besides the river Boulogne this is a very
moving memorial to those who fought and the inocent that were
massacred.
