ピカルディのモンサンカンタン地域に位置するモンサンカンタンオーストラリア戦争記念館は、オーストラリア第一次世界大戦記念碑です。
オーストラリア第2師団は、バパームからペロンヌまでの道のりに関する戦争記念碑を持っています。これは、ディストリビューションのメンバーによって開始された5つのオーストラリアのディビジョン記念碑のうちの1つだけです。基地は1925年に建てられました。それはメイバトラージョージによる銃の砲撃と押進と銃剣のついたライフルと手榴弾で前進する男性の青銅のレリーフを持っています。それはその上にドイツのワシを通して彼の銃剣を突き刺したオーストラリアの兵士を持っていました。彫刻家はCharles Web Gilbertでした。
しかし、1940年に、ドイツの兵士は記念碑を破りました。見下ろしているオーストラリア人兵士のスタンレー・ハモンドによる置換像が1971年に建てられました。
A day in the Somme with Regis, amazing and eye opening.
For anyone travelling who is from a country which took part in WW1 this is an essential visit. A beautiful and sobering memorial to our ancestors who contributed so bravery.
We were guided by Regis who was knowledgeable and took us on a journey of discovery. As Australians the tour of Villers Bretonneux was very special and the photos he took were amazing. We moved further into the Somme walking amongst the trenches and appreciating the role of our fellow countrymen and women. Very special were the tributes to the Canadians and New Foundland peoples.
I am so glad that we included this trip in our stay in Paris, it should be a must do for all. Request Regis, he made the day exceptional.

Wonderful Experience
The Meeting point at Cafe Dada was easy too get to. The Dada coffee & fresh hot croissants were wonderful. We met the Blue Fox Owner and Manager at Cafe Dada as I emailed a request to visit my Great Uncle's gravesite (11th Argyll & Sutherland Hrs) which was less than 2km from one of our stops. I did my homework years ago, provided a map to Contalmaison Chateau Cemetery and Blue Fox understood my mission as well as the other couples on the tour. Our Guide "Mathew" was outstanding! He described everything too a tee and used first hand accounts of Veterans to enhance our experience as ANZAC and 9th/15th Scottish divisions were highly engaged in this sector. Mathew had maps to aid in the trip which defined the battlefield. As a Retired Veteran myself it was a wonderful experience and I'm still touched by the attention they gave my wife and I to fulfill rendering honors to my relation that we never forgot.

Fantastic Tour Of The Somme
This is a fantastic tour of The Somme. Our guide Regis shared a wealth of knowledge about the war in the villages and battlefields. To see where the soldiers were and conditions they faced is hard to describe. We also went to sites that are overlooked on other tours. I highly recommend this tour.
