Hong Kong Cemetery
The Fronde Memorial, a granite obelisk, was erected in May 1908 in memory of the five sailors of the French "Arquebuse"-class destroyer "Fronde" who disappeared in the sinking of their boat near the Torpedo Depot, Kowloon, during the 1906 Hong Kong typhoon. Initially erected at the corner of Gascoigne Road and Jordan Road, the monument was relocated to Hong Kong Cemetery in Happy Valley during the 1960s. The "Fronde" was later salvaged, repaired in the Hung Hom shipyard, and left Hong Kong in March 1907. It was active during World War I and was decommissioned in 1919.
