The king rcade

Le roi à la récade

Excellent
La place Goho marque l'emplacement de l'ultime combat qui, en 1892, opposa l’armée coloniale française aux troupes du Dahomey. C'est sur cette place que le roi Gbehanzin se rendit au général Dodds en 1894. En 1974, le gouvernement militaire révolutionnaire proclama ici son programme d'idéologie marxiste-léniniste. Depuis 1978, la place, ombragée, abrite la haute et fière statue du roi Gbehanzin.
