Hiking
Place of laughter and tears.
Discover the façade. The sculpted decoration on the façade is reminiscent of comic masks.
Historical context: the Verdun theatre, designed by the architect Chenevier and completed in 1893, was inspired by the Opéra Garnier in Paris. The Italian-style hall was built on the banks of the Meuse, on the site of a burnt-down grain market. Like public gardens and other promenades, it is part of the urban beautification and recreation projects typical of the 19th century.
Promenades, bandstands and theatres are some of the places that bring a garrison town to life.
