Montpellier
Guided tour of the exhibition "Vivre la guerre en Hérault (1939-1945)" (Living through war in Hérault, 1939-1945) - from November 21, 2025 to March 22, 2026
The exhibition deals with daily life, from the defeat of 1940 to the end of the war and the construction of Europe. The spotlight is particularly on the feelings of the civilian population: the absence of prisoners, the arrival of people during the exodus or fleeing the occupied zone, the STO, roundups, fear, shortages and the German occupation? Far removed from the angelism and hagiography often associated with the period, the exhibition focuses on the nuances of daily life, where subsistence and survival were a priority.
Free guided tours on Wednesdays at 4pm and Saturdays at 11am and 4pm (except public holidays), registration on site.
