Most people who pass by such a war memorial commemorating the victims will not have experienced the horrors of war firsthand. A dialogue invented by the writer Paul Harding might help. It is from a medieval detective novel, and the following exchange takes place: "Tell me, brother, when you went to war in France with your little brother, were you happy?" Athelstan felt his heart leap. "Of course." He smiled thinly. "I was young then. My blood was boiling, and I longed for great adventures." "And when you found your brother dead and cold as ice on the battlefield and returned to England... what was there?" Athelstan looked out into the courtyard; it was slowly getting dark. "In the Gospel, Sir John, Christ says that at the end of the world, the heavens will shake, and the planets will fall to earth in blazing fire." Athelstan closed his eyes. He felt Francis's spirit quite clearly. “When I found my brother dead in the field,” he continued, “it was as if heaven had fallen to earth for me.” (Source: “The House of the Red Butcher” by Paul Harding)

As a memorial to the many dead, such monuments - usually called "war memorials" in English - are still very important today. "Now, Lord, you let your servant depart in peace, as you have said..." says the so-called "Hymn of Simeon" (Luke 2, verse 29). However, the people who are remembered here did not depart in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny. Therefore, instead of the previously most common "war memorial", the term "fallen memorial" is now sometimes used in German to emphasize the aspect of remembering the victims. In addition, each of these countless memorials has a timeless, permanently valid message: to remind our current and all future generations - again and again - to keep the peace.

The Battle of Britain Memorial is a national memorial to the men who fought in the Battle of Britain between 10th July and 31st October, 1940. The site is a place of peaceful remembrance and has an interactive visitor centre. You experience wonderful views over the Channel too. The memorial is free to enter but you do have to pay for the scrambling experience. For opening times and more information, visit: battleofbritainmemorial.org.

After considerable discussion in which around 60 sites were proposed for the disposal of the Channel Tunnel spoil, it was decided that the option with the least adverse environmental impact was to reclaim land from the sea at the base of Shakespeare Cliff. There was already access to the site from the Dover to Folkestone railway line and through a tunnel in the cliff left from the 1970s tunnel attempt. The main advantage of this location was no need for any transportation of the spoil to another site and the creation of a large platform to be used as a work site as the Tunnel was dug.
