    The Calvary of the sailors of Étaples is a monument that pays tribute to the Etaples sailors who have disappeared at sea since the 19th century. It is located on the port, between the Canche dike and the Boulevard de l’Impératrice.

    The Calvary was built in 1818, at the request of the maritime community. It consisted of a wooden cross, decorated with the instruments of the Passion. It was moved and replaced several times during its history, due to port and road works. The current Calvary dates from 1953 and was designed by the architect Pierre Baillet.

    The Calvary is accompanied by a stele bearing the names of the boats on which the missing sailors sailed, as well as commemorative plaques indicating the names and dates of death of the sailors. The Calvary is a symbolic and moving place for the families and inhabitants of Étaples. It bears witness to the courage and sacrifice of the Etaples sailors.

      Jean Pierre Rives, from Toulouse, well known for his qualities as a rugby player and as former captain of the French team, is also an artist recognized in the world of sculpture. It was in Etaples that he agreed with the Mayor to make a short stopover and drop off three of his monumental works which now stand on the port and opposite the municipal tourist office.
