Description

The "Monument du Souvenir", known as the "Gëlle Fra" (Golden Lady) to Luxembourgers, was inaugurated on 27 May 1923 as a memorial to fallen Luxembourg soldiers from the First World War. Luxembourgers saw the Golden Lady as symbolizing their freedom and independence. It was this symbolism that led occupying German troops to decide to dismantle the monument in October 1940. Following a restoration, it was inaugurated again in her original location on 23 June 1985 – Luxembourg’s National Day.
