Napoleon's road - meadow of encounter

  • Historic site and monument

Laffrey was the theatre the 7th march 1815 of the encounter between Napoleon, back from Elbe island, and the royal army. The site will be named later Meadow of the Encounter. An equestrian statue of the emperor, up to the lake, commemorate this event.

A stop to not miss on the Napoleon's road for its storic aspect but also for the panorama offered on Laffrey lake and mountains around.
A modest plake fixed on the cemetery wall of the city of Laffrey immortalize the Emperor's words.
