The municipality of La Grand'Croix will commemorate the 108th anniversary of the Armistice of November 11, 1918, inviting the public to join the celebrations to honor the memory of soldiers who fell on the battlefield.

On Wednesday, November 11, 2026, France will mark the 108th anniversary of the armistice that ended the First World War. This conflict, which claimed many lives over four years, affected all communes in the country.
To remember the "poilus" (infantrymen) who fell on the field of honor, the Commune of La Grand’Croix will participate in the celebrations and moments of remembrance. To preserve this duty of memory, the municipality wishes to involve the entire population in this event.
On the same day, Wednesday, November 11, 2026, a procession will begin at 10 AM from Place Charles de Gaulle to the war memorial at the commune's cemetery. The presence of as many citizens as possible will mark this anniversary and contribute to the preservation of collective memory.
