The totem pole, a true peaceful symbol of Canada, is located in Longuyon.

In 1967, General de Gaulle decided to leave NATO and, consequently, the Canadian troops who had been stationed near Longuyon since 1954 had to leave. However, for the First Wing, Royal Canadian Air Force, it was out of the question to leave without leaving a small gift to the local population for its "friendly welcome". A totem pole was therefore erected according to Amerindian tradition. A true peaceful symbol of Canada. The monument is not weather resistant and has been replaced twice. The current totem, made of resin, should be more suitable.
