Monument aux morts

About

The monument to the dead is located in Reims in the department of Marne and the Champagne-Ardenne region. It was designed by architect Henri Royer with the collaboration of the French sculptor Paul Lefebvre. He was raised in 1930 in memory of the city's children killed in the First World War from 1914 to 1918.

It was the first armed conflict that involved so many countries around the world. The loss of life was more than eight million dead and six million invalids.
