Monument du Centenaire, Memorial statue in Albert-Ier Garden, Nice, France
The Monument du Centenaire features a bronze winged Victory at its top and marble figures at its base representing Nice and France.
The monument marks the 1793 incorporation of Nice into France, inaugurated in 1896 by President Felix Faure during centenary celebrations.
The statue includes references to medieval imagery, with Nice depicted wearing ramparts, and features the city motto Nissa Fidelissima.
The monument stands at the entrance of Theatre de Verdure along Promenade des Anglais, with ramps providing access to visitors.
The dates 1793-1893 and 1860 inscribed on the monument reflect two distinct periods when Nice joined France through different political processes.
