The Cross of Agadez is a very valuable object i.e. that has a great cultural value for Niger in general and particularly for the Tuareg people. It is a cross whose fame has crossed the African and the world borders. It's really hard to know its origin, for several hypotheses exist. Today this cross is no longer just a decorative object; it is widespread throughout Niger and has become a cross of valor for our national armed forces.
