Chapelle des fusillés du Mont-Valérien, Memorial chapel at Fort Mont-Valérien, Suresnes, France
The chapel features stone walls with an annular vault resting on a central pillar, leading to a hemicycle-shaped room with white interior walls.
During World War II, from 1941 to 1944, the chapel served as the final sanctuary for resistance members before their execution by German forces.
The chapel walls preserve original graffiti inscriptions made by detained resistance fighters, maintaining a direct connection to the wartime period.
The chapel remains closed to the general public except during European Heritage Days and guided tours of the Mont-Valérien Memorial.
A bell named Jeanne d'Arc hangs on the exterior gable, while two memorial plaques honor chaplain Franz Stock and father Jean-Pierre Feseuille.
