The Breton Resistance is honoured in a completely renovated museum, located in the heart of the famous Saint-Marcel maquis.
Want to know more about the history of the Resistance in Brittany? Head for the Landes de Lanvaux. In Saint-Marcel, on the very site of memorable battles, a fascinating museum awaits you in a 6-hectare wooded park. In a completely renewed scenography, more than 1,000 objects introduce you to the daily life of the Bretons under the occupation. They also bear witness to the commitment of men and women who risked everything to defend freedom in the shadow army. A street under occupation, the interior of a blockhouse or a passive defence shelter, a convoy of American vehicles... so many immersive environments that take you right back to the Second World War. Interactive devices and multimedia content complete the experience. An instructive and moving visit to the heart of history.
