War Memorial Bourguébus

This memorial was rebuilt in 2024 on the site where an old monument once stood. It consists of statues of people who symbolize the war of 1914-1918. On the other side is a person who symbolizes the soldiers who died during World War II. A woman with one arm missing represents the civilians who also fell victim to this war. Finally, the child symbolizes the future. Plaques bearing the names of fallen soldiers and civilians are affixed to the front of the memorial.
