The monument to the dead of the war 1914-1918 says of the Victoire, in total, located Place Carnot, on the public domain not cadasted: inscription by order of 29 July 2022

Origin and history

The Monument to the Dead of the War 1914-1918 known as the Victory is erected in Rouen, Normandy, on Carnot Square. This memorial pays tribute to the Red soldiers who died in the first global conflict. Its inscription as a Historic Monument in July 2022 underscores its heritage and symbolic importance to the city.

The location of the monument, originally specified at Carnot Square (postal code 76000), appears to be approximated geographically, with an alternative address suggested at 32 Champlain Avenue (76100). This duality may reflect urban developments or database reference errors. The monument belongs to the commune of Rouen, confirming its anchoring in the local public space.

Monuments to the dead, like Rouen, play a central role in the collective memory after the Great War. They materialize mourning and tribute to the victims, while serving as a gathering place for commemorative ceremonies. In the Norman context, marked by post-conflict reconstruction and a strong regional identity, these buildings become symbols of resilience and social cohesion.
