Monument aux Morts Constantine
Overview:
The monument of desd is a wonderful landmark around which many legends and novels were woven to remain a witness on three historical periods touching the beliefs of the Romans and immortalizing the dead of World War I and the French occupation of Algeria, where it was built in 1934 AD by France, which wanted to immortalize the souls of its fallen soldiers and the statue of victory is located on it, which is a winged woman resembling a mythical bird preparing to fly, in reference to the belief of victory for the Romans. In this regard, some claim that the Arc de Triomphe, located on the Elysee Street in France, which was built at the request of Napoleon and was inaugurated in 1836 AD by Louis Philippe, was inspired by a small model expressing the belief of victory in ancient civilizations, as well as it represents the Roman god of victory.
