LE LION DE BELFORT
The lion symbolizes the heroic French resistance during the Siege of Belfort, a 103 days long Prussian assault (from December 1870 to February 1871). The city was protected from 40,000 Prussians by merely 17.000 men (only 3,500 were from the military) led by Colonel Denfert-Rochereau.
