Statue du maréchal de Tourville, Naval memorial in Tourville-sur-Sienne, France.

The marble statue stands 4.26 meters tall, depicting Marshal Tourville holding a sword and command staff while wearing a plumed hat.

Originally intended for the Concorde Bridge during Napoleon's era, the statue was moved to Versailles in 1832 before finding its permanent location in 1931.

The monument commemorates Anne Hilarion de Costentin de Tourville, a distinguished vice admiral who served under King Louis XIV of France.

Located at Place Léon-Paul-Legraverend, the statue underwent restoration in 2015 during which the broken sword blade was reconstructed to its original state.

Created by sculptor Joseph-Charles Marin from Carrara marble, the statue received official historic monument status in 1991, excluding its base since 2006.
