Le Souvenir Français is a national association created in 1887 with the intention of forming a bond between all French people around the values of France and the Republic.
Le Souvenir Français today has 200,000 active members throughout the entire national territory.
Their goal is to preserve the memory of those who died for France throughout its history or who honored it through noble actions, notably by maintaining their graves and the monuments erected in their glory. It is also about passing the torch to successive generations by instilling in them, through the maintenance of memory, the sense of duty, love of the Fatherland, and respect for its values.
