A great museum although mostly in French, the information in English wasn’t quite enough so we got the audio guides which is an extra €2pp. One of our guides died about half an hour later so make sure the batteries are charged.

If you are from England and have visited the Western Approaches museum in Liverpool, then it's the same kind of size. Also like Western Approaches it is in an underground bunker, which was previously forgotten and locked away.
Worth a visit and really interesting. Very friendly...

Great location, full of fascinating history, especially the details of resistance against fascism which is unfortunately one of those things we need to keep in mind these days when we'd all much rather we had all learnt the lesson a long time ago.

The rooms are full of information but not very large so it could get quite cramped if busy. Definitely worth a...
