Origin and history

Troo's Memorial to the Dead 1914-1918 is a memorial building built during the 2nd quarter of the 20th century. It is distinguished by its inscription in title of Historical Monuments since 5 January 2021, thus protecting its structure located on Place Antoine Bourdelle, communal public domain. This monument symbolizes the duty of remembrance to soldiers who fell during the First World War, in a commune marked by this conflict.

The location of the monument, in Troo (Loir-et-Cher), is specified by two addresses: the official one in the Merimée base (Place Antoine Bourdelle), the other from the GPS coordinates (1 Chemin de Bel Air). The accuracy of its location is estimated to be fair (note 5/10), perhaps reflecting minor uncertainties about its exact location. Owned by the municipality, this monument is part of a local heritage dedicated to commemoration, without any details of its architect or sponsor being mentioned in the available sources.

The monument is included in the inventory of Historical Monuments for its entirety, as represented on a plan annexed to the protection order. This official recognition underlines its heritage and memorial importance, although the sources do not specify specific stylistic or artistic elements. Its role in communal life remains that of a place of recollection and transmission of local history, typical of monuments to the dead erected after the Great War in France.
