On the The of the church of Assat, you can see this monument to the dead of the Great War. This monument has to work by a sculptor, Ernest Gabard, who has been returning from Verdun, who carried out several sculptures of this kind in the region. Here you will be touched by this painful face, head down and arms folded, in a big dress, surmounted by a bride, praying for the heroes of war. Besides this Pleureuse, he staged, in the region, the soldier roll to the lost eyes of Igon, the lost gaze of Soumoulou, the soldier cut, twisted of pain, of Pontacq… So the artist wanted, without any doubt, through his moving characters, to print his silent disapproval to the tragic events of that time!
