At the entrance to Lille Zoo stands a monument commemorating the "20,000 pigeons who died for their country" and the "pigeon fanciers who were shot for keeping carrier pigeons." This monument commemorates the important role carrier pigeons played during the First World War. One pigeon was even awarded the Order of the French Nation in Verdun. Since then, radio waves have replaced wings for transmitting information during wartime, but pigeon racing has remained a popular pastime in the north of the country.

Although the Napoleon Bridge has a long history, the current bridge only dates from 2014! That year, as part of the overall redevelopment of the Citadel Park, the Napoleon Bridge was rebuilt. This was based on the design created by Philippe Canissié in 1849, after the original bridge had become significantly outdated (including the roof's need for renovation). During the 2014 project, new sphinxes and concrete abutments covered with the original stones and sculptures were added. The first version of the bridge was built in 1809, and inscribed with the names of French victories in the Napoleonic battles. The bridge was destroyed in both the First and Second World Wars.
