The monument is located on the east bank of the Meuse, in front of Japiot Park, next to Porte Chaussée. Built in 1928, it stands on the site of the military butchery destroyed in 1916. The monument is composed of five figures representing the five corps of the army engaged during the battle of 1916: a horseman, an engineer, a territorial , an infantryman and an artilleryman.
