상품 설명
This tour is a focused one-hour guided exploration of the Canadian National Vimy Memorial — its history, artistic vision, and enduring meaning.
Begin in the aftermath of the First World War, when Canada chose to commemorate its war dead overseas. Learn about the 1920s design competition and how sculptor and architect Walter Allward’s ambitious proposal was selected. Discover how the monument was constructed in Europe, transported stone by stone, and assembled on Vimy Ridge.
Explore the symbolism of its sculpted figures — from allegorical representations of Peace and Justice to the powerful image of Canada Bereft — and hear the story of the 1936 unveiling, attended by veterans and families. Together, we consider how architecture and art were shaped into a national act of remembrance.
This experience is especially meaningful for French families wishing to better understand the presence of the memorial in their landscape, and for Canadian visitors seeking a deeper connection to a place that holds national significance. It offers a thoughtful introduction before exploring the wider ridge and surrounding sites.
Guests who wish to continue their journey may extend their visit through the preserved battlefield by e-bike or enjoy a more intimate perspective in a vintage open-air vehicle.
