This is the only international monument built in France for the centenary of the Great War.

The Ring of Remembrance was born of the desire to bring together posthumously the names of almost 600,000 soldiers who fell during the first World War in Nord-Pas de Calais, without making any distinction by nationality, gender, or religion.

This architectural achievement is the work of architect Philippe Prost. It is situated in the middle of the largest cemeteries and international memorials on the hills of the Artois
