The Turenne rail accident occurred on 14 September 1932 when a train carrying French Foreign Legionnaires crashed in Algeria killing 62 people.

The military train carrying 500 soldiers departed Sidi Bel Abbès at 07:15 that morning[1] bound for Oujda in Morocco.

In the mountainous Tlemcen Province between Zelboun and Turenne (now called Sabra) it derailed, the engine and all 14 carriages fell 250 feet into a ravine killing 57 soldiers and 5 train crew;[2] 223 men were injured.

The population of Turenne helped in the initial rescue work until a relief train arrived.

A 12-metre-high (39 ft) monument has been erected near the site of the disaster, topped by a grenade, the symbol of the French Foreign Legion.
