French Resistance and the Liberation of Paris

2 July 2009

Fascinating museum of history.

I recently heard about a museum dedicated to the French Resistance and the Liberation of Paris near the Gare Montparnasse, which piqued my interest and whet my appetite.

“Accessoires et Objets, Témoignages de Vies de Femmes à Paris 1940-1944,” at the Musée Jean Moulin, on top of the Gare Montparnasse, is a fine demonstration of, to use a clichéd expression, the triumph of the human spirit in the darkest hours of World War II.
