グラン・フォート・フィリップのおすすめランニングルート

A must-see route in the area! Safe and very pleasant place

The ferry will only be available for certain hours. They are available online.

La Canote, the ferry only sails at certain times, depending on the tides. There is a table with the hours from day to sag, but the boat does not sail every day either.

Be careful, opening times depend on the tides! Check in advance!

As a memorial to the many dead, such a “MONUMENT AUX MORTS” (usually called a “monument” or “war memorial” in German-speaking countries) is still very important today. “Now you, O Lord, are letting your servant depart in peace, as you said…” says the so-called “Song of Simeon” (Gospel of Luke chapter 2, verse 29). However, the people who are remembered here did not die in peace, but rather became victims of war and tyranny. This is why the term “Fallen Monument” is now sometimes used instead of the “war memorial” that was previously common in German. In the French-speaking world, however, this aspect of commemorating the dead has long been included through the commonly used term "MONUMENT AUX MORTS". Regardless of language and nation, such a monument has two important and at the same time eternal tasks: -1- To keep the memory of the suffering and horror of the war alive, -2- and to call for the lasting preservation of peace.
