    Hiking

    The rooster is a French national symbol. The association of the rooster and France was born from a play on words: the Latin word gallus means both “Gallic” and “rooster”.

    After an eclipse in the Middle Ages, the symbol of the French rooster was reborn in the 14th century. From the Renaissance, the animal interfered in representations of the King of France.

    If the contemporary political field prefers Marianne, the rooster remains the emblem of France in the eyes of the world.

    Opposite the churches in Moroges is this memorial stone to those who died in previous wars. What I found fascinating here is the rooster on top of the memorial stone. No eagle, no helmet, no weapons, no - a rooster! I think it's great!
