War Memorial Dax

This monument (Monument aux Morts) commemorates the residents of Dax who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars and then in the wars in Indochina (1946-1954) and Algeria (1954-1962).

The column contains an image of a French soldier from World War I and a mother with a child on her arm symbolising France.

The monument bears the names of the victims and a text:

"Aux enfents de Dax
Morts pour la France"
1914-1918

"To the children of Dax
Who died for France
1914-1918
