Charles de Gaulle Memorial, Memorial museum in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises, Haute-Marne, France

The Charles de Gaulle Memorial is a monument at the base of the Cross of Lorraine with exhibition spaces that document his life. The site displays photographs, maps, graphics, and audiovisual installations that trace his military and political career.

The Cross of Lorraine was inaugurated on 18 June 1972 by President Georges Pompidou, funded by a national subscription that raised 5.5 million francs from more than 67 countries. The memorial building itself was launched by Jacques Chirac on 9 November 2006 and inaugurated on 11 October 2008 by Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel, fifty years after de Gaulle received Konrad Adenauer at the Boisserie in 1958.

The 44.30-metre Cross of Lorraine above the memorial was funded by a national subscription after de Gaulle's death in 1970, with donations from more than 67 countries. Lebanon gave 1,000 cedars planted on 35 hectares around it. The cross is clad in pink granite from Perros-Guirec and bronze panels made in an Alsatian foundry.

The memorial is open daily except Tuesdays, and the best time to visit depends on the season. Winter hours are shorter, while longer opening times in summer give visitors more time to explore.

The 44.30-metre Cross of Lorraine was funded by a national subscription that drew donations from more than 67 countries, raising 5.5 million francs. The money also bought 35 hectares of land, where 1,000 cedars of Lebanon were planted, a gift from Lebanon. The cross was inaugurated on 18 June 1972, the 32nd anniversary of the Appeal of 18 June.
