As a memorial to the many dead, such a “MONUMENT AUX MORTS” (usually called a “cenotaph” 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.

The Heroes' Monument in Sens is a memorial dedicated to soldiers who fell during the First World War. It is located on the Place des Héros, near the Saint-Savinien basilica and the ancient Carmel.

Founded in 1209 on the edge of the forest of Othe by the Order of Gramont, a religious community which had an important influence in the region, this priory was ruined by the Hundred Years War, but rebuilt at the beginning of the 16th century. The order was abolished in 1772 and the building sold for its stones during the French Revolution. Of the priory, all that remains today is the arcature of the facade as well as the ruins of the chapel and the priory dwelling. In the 19th century, there were still ribbed vaults, but they collapsed. The apse which had walls rising up to 4 m also collapsed during the winter of 1996-1997. It is a private property open to the public only on certain occasions such as heritage days. Difficult to see anything other than the facade visible from the road.
