The Faidherbe Column is a monument which commemorates the Battle of Hallue, which took place on December 23 and 24, 1870, during the Franco-Prussian War. You can learn more about this event and the role of General Faidherbe, who commanded the French army, by reading the plaques affixed to the base of the column. The column is located on a hill which overlooks the Hallue valley and offers a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside.

From the column you can contemplate what was the theater of operations of the Battle of Hallue in December 1870.
It is a place steeped in history, please respect it.
The ascent by mountain bike from the village requires good physical condition.
