History
The Thorigné-sur-Dué war memorial was erected in memory of the soldiers who fell in the War of 1870–1871; later, those who died in the wars of 1914–1918 and 1939–1945 were also commemorated there. It is made of granite and crowned by a bronze statue of an officer holding a sword, with his arm outstretched in the direction from which the enemy came. The monument was inaugurated on 11 July 1897.
