Memorial de l'Abolition de l'Esclavage, or Memorial to the Abolition of Slavery, inaugurated 25th March 2012, on the Quai de la Fosse, a port quay along the right bank of the river Loire in the centre of Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France. In the ground are set 2000 glass plates by Emmanuel Barrois and Krzysztof Wodiczko, commemorating elements of the slave trade. Nantes was an important trading port, profiting from the slave trade from 17th - 19th century. This quayside area houses the large mansions built by shipowners, but also previously housed many bars and a red light district frequented by sailors. Picture by Manuel Cohen
