The town of Ruffec invites its residents to participate in the commemoration of the 108th anniversary of the 1918 Armistice, a moment dedicated to remembrance and the transmission of freedom's values. This tribute is for those who sacrificed their lives during the First World War.
The ceremony aims to threefold: to not forget the sacrifices of soldiers who fell for their country, to honor their memory, and to pass on this duty of remembrance to future generations.
The commemoration program will begin at 11:00 AM with a wreath-laying ceremony at the Monument aux Morts de 1870 (War Memorial of 1870), located at Place de la Gare.
At 11:15 AM, a gathering will take place at the Monument aux Morts, situated at Rue du 11 Novembre 1918, followed by another wreath-laying and speeches.
