#4 – Oradour-sur-Glane

Oradour-sur-Glane is a French village where 642 men, women and children were massacred by the Nazis in 1944. The ruins of the village have remained untouched since Charles de Gaulle ordered that they should forever bear witness to the atrocities that took place. Even the car from which the town’s mayor was pulled from and murdered remains in the street. Charred pushchairs and toys also remain as a reminder of the hundreds of the innocents brutally slain.
