Mémorial de la ferme de Richemont, War memorial in Saucats, France

The Mémorial de la ferme de Richemont is a war memorial in Saucats featuring a 35-meter tall obelisk with four sculptures at its base representing Faith, Courage, Sacrifice, and Victory. The site spans grounds that include preserved ruins of the original farm where the events took place.

The site is connected to a battle on July 14, 1944, where thirteen students from Lycée Montaigne lost their lives. The conflict occurred during the German occupation of France and involved Resistance fighters and local supporters.

The memorial's name comes from the abandoned Richemont farm where the FFI group had set up a cadre school for the Resistance. On the other face of the low stone doorway, the names of the young victims are engraved. The obelisk was nicknamed "le Signal" because it was built to be seen from afar.

From the D651, follow the D111E3 for about 2 km; this lane leads only to the memorial, which stands 4 km southwest of Saucats village. The site is reached on foot from the parking area, and the paved ground around the archway is level.

The obelisk was nicknamed "le Signal" because it was built to be seen from afar, rising from the pines along a 2 km access road laid out for the project. The first sculpture encountered on approaching, on the north face, is Victory, 7.85 m tall and set in place in 1949.
