In the heart of Rocroi, on Avenue du Général de Gaulle, stands an impressive monument commemorating the tragic losses of the First World War. The Mémorial de 14-18 was erected in 1923 in memory of the people of Rocroi who gave their lives for their country. At the center of the monument stands a bronze lion, powerful and vigilant, a symbol of courage and determination. Behind the lion rises an obelisk engraved with the names of the fallen, a sober yet poignant testament to their sacrifice. The inscription reads: "Rocroi à ses enfants morts pour la patrie 1914-1918" (Rocroi to its dead children for the fatherland 1914-1918), a tribute that reflects the city's collective grief and pride.
