  Monument of war

We start up our visit on the Station market.
The place was modified and the result is in my opinion very successful. The architect is Manuel de Solà-Morales from Barcelona.In order to allow a quicker circulation on the peripheral, a tunnel passes now under the market.
It remains that only the local circulation and the buses in surface so the taverns surroundings of course had quickly done go out their terraces. From the monument placed in the middle, have unfortunately not learn more than it is an Obélisque in war remembrance.

---oooOOOooo---


Nous démarrons notre visite à la place de la Gare.
L'endroit a été remanié et le résultat est à mon avis très réussi. L'architecte est Manuel de Solà-Morales originaire de Barcelone. Afin de permettre une circulation plus rapide sur le périphérique, un tunnel passe maintenant sous la place.
Il ne reste que la circulation locale et les bus en surface et les tavernes alentours on bien sûr eurent vite fait de sortir leurs terrasses.
Du monument placé au milieu je n'ai malheureusement rien pût apprendre de plus qu'il s'agit d'un obélisque en souvenir des guerres.

Address: Station, Martelarenplein
