Canadian National Vimy Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The Canadian Vimy Memorial dominates the surrounding area with its two white towers. Nearby, in Thélus, the Canadian cemetery and the monument in honor of the Canadian artillery are installed at Zivy Crater on the site of the crater dug by the explosion of a mine.

Canadian Memorial

Highlight • Other

In April 1917, the Canadians attack the German army, which was standing by on the Vimy ridge, and win the battle. But this victory came at a high price: more than 10,000 killed and wounded on the Canadian side. As a tribute to all these soldiers, a huge memorial has been erected, consisting of about twenty statues, and 2 immense white towers with a height of 27 meters, which took 11 years to build. The "maple leaf" is applied to one, and a fleur de lis to the other, as a symbol of solidarity between Canada and France.

The Canadian National Vimy Memorial in Pas-de-Calais is today the largest national Canadian memorial site abroad. On site you can see that the underground facilities and trenches are still intact.

The Vimy ridge offers a magnificent panorama of the mining area and the hills of the Artois region.

Going up the Angres path to join the long ridge path, it is impossible to take the path on the left because trees cut the path

EuroVélo 5 at Souchez

Highlight • Other

Magnificent new section of Eurovélo 5 linking Angres to Holain Park. Small sections are created a little out of order, and will ultimately constitute Eurovélo 5 of 3,300 km between London (England) and Brindisi (Italy).

The Church of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire

Highlight • Historical Site

The ruins of the old church of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire are an impressive and symbolic remnant of the First World War. This church, built in the 16th century in flamboyant Gothic style by Jacques Le Caron, was heavily damaged during the fighting in 1915. The ruins have been preserved as a monument to commemorate the horrors of war.
