Robert Schuman European Centre - CERS
In June 2023, CERS organized the French meeting of the Memorial Project – "RETOUR" - in Scy-Chazelles, Metz and Verdun.
On-site discussions and discoveries adressed Europe and (post-)colonialism. Special focus was given to the visit of the battlefields of Verdun and the history of the "tirailleurs" during the First World War.
Our video reportage lets you experience the seminar first hand.
A online event on December 4th, 2023 will conclude this beautiful European project of almost two years.
The RETOUR project is supported by six partners from six European countries. Each institution organizes a seminar in its region and welcomes the other participants there to introduce them to local history and discuss different approaches to commemoration and teaching.
