The commemoration of March 26, 1962, will take place this year in front of the Memorial Stele, opposite the Mediterranean University Center in Nice.
A week after March 19, 1962, the tragic shooting on Rue d’Isly occurred on March 26, 1962, which resulted in many casualties.
The laying of wreaths will take place on Saturday, March 26, 2016, at 3 PM in front of the Memorial Stele, opposite the Mediterranean University Center in Nice. Dignitaries, leaders, and members of the Repatriates and Harkis associations will pay tribute to the numerous people who lost their lives on that tragic day.
The members of the “National Collective No to March 19, 1962,” the Pied-Noir Caduceus, and the Algerianist Circle are organizing, independently of the official ceremony, a wreath-laying at the Monument to the Martyrs of French Algeria in Alsace Lorraine Square, this Saturday at 10:30 AM in memory of the March 26, 1962, shooting in Algiers.
