This monument is a tribute to the builders of the Channel Tunnel, the engineering marvel that connects France and England under the sea. There you will find the drilling unit which sits in the middle of the roundabout. You can also discover the Maison du Patrimoine, a museum which presents the history of the tunnel and the prehistoric discoveries made during its construction. The monument is located near the Coquelles terminal of the tunnel.
