The Memorial of the Black Army is a sober reminder of Fréjus' long military connection with troops recruited from France's African colonies. It commemorates the soldiers commonly known as Tirailleurs sénégalais, though they came from across West and Central Africa, and places their service within the wider story of two world wars.
It is not a large sight, but it adds important context to the town's better-known Roman and colonial-era remains. Pair it with the nearby military memorials if you are interested in the less comfortable layers of French imperial history.
