    Memorial built in memory of the 1465 martyrs of the Resistance and the fighters of Charente and Charente-Maritime who fell on the battlefield.
    This memorial is also a national necropolis where 2,255 graves of soldiers and resistance fighters are buried.

    21 meters high, the Resistance Memorial overlooks the forests where the region's maquis were established. This place of memory has a crypt in which lie the bodies of the main leaders of the Charentais maquis. The National Necropolis extends around the Memorial over more than 2 ha. 2,026 resistance fighters or soldiers from the Second World War are buried there.

    A beautiful place to pay tribute to the fighters of our region. I recommend stopping there and visiting the alcove in which Mr. Bonnier is buried
