Description

Village martyr d'Oradour-sur-Glane is a moving memorial site that preserves the traces of a tragic history. On June 10, 1944, German SS troops murdered 642 civilians here, including 245 women and 207 children, before destroying the entire village.

The preserved ruins are a poignant testimony to the atrocities of World War II. The Memorial Center offers an exhibition documenting the historical context of the massacre.

It is a unique place that makes you reflect on history and is an important lesson for future generations.
