Designed by André Le Nôtre, it is also one of the most attractive parks on the outskirts of Paris. Site labeled "remarkable garden".

Principal lieu d'exécution par l'armée allemande de résistants et d'otages en France pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le Mont-Valérien est aujourd'hui un lieu qui, à travers sa programmation pédagogique, culturelle et commémorative, souhaite faire partager son histoire et ses mémoires et ainsi faire découvrir le parcours de ceux "qui aimaient la vie à en mourir". Le Mémorial du Mont-Valérien fait partie des Hauts lieux de la mémoire nationale, propriété de l’État. Ils sont placés sous la responsabilité du ministère des Armées (DPMA). Leur valorisation est confiée à l'ONACVG.
The scene of the murders of members of resistance and other freedom fighters in a war few these days seem to remember or care about. The memorial is situated in a huge park popular with runners, it was disappointing therefore to see some use it as a piece of exercise equipment. It is a crypt-it should be respected. There is an eternal flame also burning here. A short distance away is also the American Cemetery which was stunning too. A good way to spend a Sunday in remembrance.
