The Tournon-sur-Rhône War Memorial impressively commemorates the fallen of both World Wars. It is centrally located in the old town, near the Rhône River and the castle. The bronze figure and delicate reliefs convey quiet dignity and gratitude. A brief stop is worthwhile for history buffs and strollers alike.

The following sentence is attributed to the French writer Victor Hugo (1802-1885): „One day, cannons will be exhibited in museums, like old torture instruments are now, and people will marvel that such things were ever in use.“ If only this vision of his had already become a reality! Then there would be no need for the many 'Monument aux Morts' with which villages and towns, across the country, commemorate their inhabitants who lost their lives in war.
