European Architecture Days

Museum Overview

When architecture tells the story of the maquis.

By Julien Guillon, Memorial's chief historian

The unique architecture of the Memorial tells the story of clandestine activity and the resistance movement, while also paying tribute to the combatants and civilians. The building blends into the landscape, itself bearing the marks of the men and women who dedicated their lives. The first part is outdoors, the second on the belvedere.
