Quai de Londres
Highlight • Other
The current Quai de Londres was an additional victim of the bombing and was completely destroyed during the Battle of Verdun. After the war, the building was completely rebuilt and renovated with financial support from the City of London. Today, this pedestrian area is the scene of the most emblematic events in the region: the Musiques et Terrasses festival, the Grand Festival, etc.

La Defense - de Rodin
Highlight • Other
The Friendly Holland Monument, located in the town of Verdun, is a poignant symbol of the friendship between the Netherlands and France, forged in the fires of the First World War. In 1916, during one of the deadliest battles in history, French troops fought a fierce battle to defend Verdun. The Netherlands, a neutral country during the conflict, offered humanitarian aid by setting up the French National Committee for Aid to the War Wounded (CNABG).
This committee, led by the Count of Villeneuve, played a major role in organising medical aid and assistance for wounded French soldiers. Dutch nurses worked tirelessly to treat the wounded and comfort the soldiers, saving countless lives and strengthening the ties between the two countries. This act of generosity and solidarity was commemorated with the construction of the Friendly Holland Monument.
Architectural features
The Friendly Holland Monument is a breathtaking work of architecture. It stands proudly in the Japiot Park of Verdun, designed by the Dutch architect John HW Leliman and inaugurated in 1938. The monument consists of three main elements.
