A memorial to 2,000 journalists, a unique place in Europe to honour those who give their lives for information.

"To want oneself free is also to want others free" wrote Simone de Beauvoir. Close to the Military Cemetery and its Memorial, this other Memorial, accessible via rue de Verdun, is unique in Europe, thanks to the Town of Bayeux, in partnership with Reporters Sans Frontières. Inaugurated in 2006, it pays tribute to journalists and reporters killed in the exercise of their profession since 1944. More than 2,000 names are engraved on some thirty white steles. The landscaping was designed by landscape architect Samuel Craquelin.

Bel espace pour se promener, reflechir et penser à ces reporters dont les noms sont trop facilement oublies. C ´est une belle idée.
