Ring of Remembrance

Highlight • Monument

The Anneau de la Mémoire is an impressive monument commemorating the 576,606 soldiers of forty different nationalities who died in Nord-Pas-de-Calais during the First World War. The monument was designed by Philippe Prost and was unveiled on 11 November 2014, the 96th anniversary of Armistice Day. It consists of 500 metal panels, each approximately 3 metres high, arranged in an elliptical shape. The names of the soldiers are listed alphabetically, without distinction of rank or nationality.

Notre-Dame-de-Lorette National Cemetery

Highlight • Historical Site

Notre-Dame-de-Lorette is the largest cemetery in France, but also a location for remembrance and reflection, where the battles that took place on this hill in 1915 are commemorated. The location is near the town of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire; it consists of a basilica built in a neo-Byzantine style, a lantern tower 52 meters high and an immense military cemetery, the largest in France, where 40,058 bodies are buried.

In 2014, a memorial ring was placed, bearing the names of almost 580,000 soldiers of different nationalities who lost their lives in Nord-Pas-de-Calais between 1914 and 1918.

Two other buildings have been added to this site: the "living museum" 14-18, located on the Notre-Dame-de-Lorette hill, with more than 2,000 pieces in its collection, and the Historical Center of the Memorial 14-18 , in Souchez, a visitors center where objects, photos and film from that time are displayed.

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.
