Moving and sobering at the courage of the Maqui who would not submit to surrender or the tyranny of the Nazi occupiers. The exhibits were powerful and I was grateful they had explanations in English. I left the museum with some new historical heroes. Viva La Maqui. Thank you to the museum for it's preservation of this important history to France and the world in my humble opinion.
