Oradour-sur-Glane
During World War II, the village of
Oradour-sur-Glane, on the outskirts of Limoges, was destroyed and its
people were massacred by Nazis. To tell this crucial piece of history, part of the village remains the same as it was after it was destroyed, with everything left in place just as it was on that day. The cars are still on the street exactly where they were left, furniture still in place in the houses that survived the fires. Oradour-sur-Glane is truly a unique memorial and one that genuinely evokes the meaning of one of the awful events of that time.
