The Tour des Géants, an open-air museum that pays tribute to the racers of France in Pau.

This open-air museum, inaugurated in 2015, is a tribute to the riders of the Tour de France. Set up as giant totems, you'll find the great names of cycling, photographed and presented on sky-defying bollards. The totems were made by the Gillet foundry in Albi, the oldest foundry in France. The monument is destined to grow by one totem each year, and the concept is sure to be a hit with visitors every year, as it's rare to be able to follow the evolution of a museum step by step. Each stele is equipped with a flash code for easy presentation. The legend that began in Pau in 1930 has no end in sight, and this memorial is already one of the city's must-see attractions.

Bien sympa ce jardin souvenir du tour de France cycliste, avec ses totems retraçant les vainqueurs et l'histoire du tour année par année, sur le site de l'ancien vélodrome où se faisait jadis les arrivées. Chaque totem retrace les épopées des vainqueurs et de ceux qui en font la légende. Incontournable à voir, non loin de la gare ferroviaire et du boulevard des Pyrénées.
