Statue of Winston Churchill, Bronze statue at Avenue Winston Churchill in Paris, France.

The 3.2-meter-tall bronze statue portrays Winston Churchill in a walking stance, based on a photograph from his victory march in 1944.

Queen Elizabeth II and President Jacques Chirac unveiled the monument on November 11, 1998, marking 80 years since the World War I armistice.

The inscription 'We shall never surrender' on the statue base reflects Churchill's determination during Britain's conflict with Nazi Germany.

The statue stands near Champs-Elysees-Clemenceau metro station, with lines 1 and 13 providing direct access to this memorial location.

Three thousand individual donations, totaling £250,000, funded this rare monument to a foreign leader in central Paris.
