Place du 1er Novembre

You will be picked up at 9 AM. If needed, you can leave your belongings with the hotel concierge before we head to our first stop: **Place d'Armes** (formerly Place Foch). A central gathering point and one of Oran’s most significant landmarks, this square serves as a link between the old and new parts of the city. Surrounding it are architectural gems like the **Town Hall** and the **Regional Theatre**, adding to its historical charm. At the heart of the square stands a **pyramidal stele**, erected by France in 1898 to commemorate the **Battle of Sidi Brahim** (September 23, 1845), in which Emir Abdelkader’s forces defeated the French. Crowned by a bronze **Winged Victory** statue, the monument also features a bust of Emir Abdelkader, subtly concealing the names of fallen French soldiers.
