About this event

This Wednesday, 11 November, France marks the 108th anniversary of the 1918 Armistice. It was signed at 5.15 am in a railway carriage in the forest of Compiègne, and the ceasefire on the Western Front took effect at 11 o'clock. A public holiday since 1922, 11 November now honours everyone who died for France, not only the soldiers of the Great War. As every year, ceremonies are planned at the war memorials of towns and villages across Corrèze.
