Cemeteries and memorials to visit Mali

It is located in the west of the city. This cemetery dates from the French occupation of 1893. It is not of particular interest.

In this plain, more than three thousand people fell into one day under the bullets of Samory, emperor of Du.

Located in the Abaradjou district north of the city, the monument was inaugurated on 27 March 1996 at the Flame of Peace ceremony celebrating the end of the rebellion in the north of the country. More than 3 000 guests, representatives of the United Nations and the African Union, attended the inauguration. The then President of Mali, Alpha Oumar Konaré, and his counterpart in Ghana had ignited the weapons of rebel veterans to put an end to the clashes. For the people of the city and north of the country, it symbolizes peace finally found. It consists of 3 parts: the walls of the history, the stake and the silhouette of four people who hold the torch of peace.
