July 28, 2026, Monument Aux Docteurs Perrochaud en Cazin

Historical background (wiki): Sanatorium Cazin-Perrochaud in Berck-Plage around 1900 Thanks to its almost germ-free and low-particle sea air, the place was an important therapy and recreation center for tuberculosis patients from the Second Empire until the discovery of suitable antibiotics. After the inauguration of the "Hôpital Maritime" by Empress Eugénie in 1869, further clinics were rapidly built, some of which are still preserved today and used for therapeutic purposes. Characteristic of these buildings are large terraces and balconies, where patients spent their days breathing.

1891: after the death of the two doctors, a committee was formed in the country to erect a monument to them. Subscriptions poured in. Around 1892, the monument, in honour of the founding doctors of the Berck hospitals, was made by the sculptor Marie Cazin-Guillet (1844-1924), wife of Jean-Charles Cazin (1841-1901), a painter from Boulogne and brother of the doctor Henri Cazin (1836-1891). It was placed in front of the Kursaal gardens, on the Avenue de la Gare, and inaugurated on 23 August 1893. The monument was transferred to the municipality, which would be responsible for its care and maintenance. It remained in place until 1939 and was then dismantled; the round hump and the bronze bas-relief were hidden to prevent the material from melting during the Second World War. The various elements were found in the 1970s and 1980s and placed in different places: the bronze plaque at the town hall, the round bump on the Esplanade.

The magnificent beach of Berck-sur-Mer stretches for nearly 12 kilometers, going from the naturist beach in the north to Authie Bay in the south. With a bit of luck you might spot seals off the beach. Colonies were established on different sites on the Opal Coast.
