Outside the walls of Fort Carre

Antibes Bastion.
The grave of Arlon Limburg

Fort Carré is also a home to the monumental statue of Poilu, erected in honor of the soldiers who died for France during the First World War.

It took sculptor Henri Bouchard four years to erect the monument, which measures 22 meters high and is therefore the tallest monument to war dead in France.

At the inauguration in 1927, 261 names were mentioned. Antibes is in fact one of the communes in France which lost the greatest number of its children during the WWI
