Chateau-Thierry American Monument France



The impressive World War I American monument is easily visible atop a hill by the Marne River near Chateau-Thierry France.

A short video showing the U.S. memorial and views of the valley below the monument.





The monument honours the soldiers who fought and died here in 1918. It was dedicated in 1937.


















There is a visitor centre providing information about the American war effort. It is open most days and there is no charge.









Learn more at the U.S. memorial website.
