A memorial space with numerous testimonials. The Jardin de la Mémoire features a sculpture by artist Paul-Armand Gette

During the Second World War, the region was a land of welcome and shelter for those fleeing persecution. The tour is organized around the different forms of resistance: civil, spiritual and armed. Testimonials from those involved in the rescue operation, refugees and members of the Resistance can be viewed. To the north of the buildings, a garden of memory has been created in an enclosed space that is an integral part of the site. Designed by internationally-renowned gardener and landscape architect Louis Benech, it offers a serene space for meditation.

Aujourd'hui où il est important que l'on n'oublie pas les périodes noires du passé, ce site est bien un lieu de mémoire qui relate parfaitement l'histoire des "justes" qui ont sauvé de nombreux juifs pendant la deuxième guerre mondiale dans cette région.
L'exposition temporaire "juifs et protestants parcours croisés de 1517 à 2017" est également très intéressante et bienvenue dans ce site.
C'est instructif surtout si l'on veut en savoir plus sur le sujet.
