Centre d'Histoire de la Résistance et de la Déportation, Military museum in Lyon, France
The Centre d'Histoire de la Résistance et de la Déportation occupies a former military health school building, presenting exhibitions about World War II resistance and deportation.
During Nazi occupation, the building served as Gestapo headquarters where Klaus Barbie, known as the butcher of Lyon, tortured resistance members including Jean Moulin.
The museum features three main exhibition spaces focusing on commitment, propaganda, and chronology, supplemented by survivor testimonies and historical artifacts.
The museum welcomes visitors from Wednesday to Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with free admission for persons under 18 years old.
Visitors can watch a 45-minute documentary about the 1987 trial of Klaus Barbie, marking the first filmed proceedings of crimes against humanity in France.
