Musée de la Résistance et de la Déportation à Grenoble

The Musée de la Résistance et de la Déportation à Grenoble is a history museum dedicated to the region's role during World War II. The three floors display chronologically organized exhibitions featuring documents, photographs, and personal belongings from the period.

The museum was founded in 1966 as Musée de la Résistance Dauphinoise before moving to its current location on rue Hébert in 1994. This relocation marked an expansion of the institution's scope to encompass deportation history alongside resistance narratives.

The museum displays objects from daily life during the resistance period, showing how ordinary people navigated these dangerous times. The collection helps visitors understand what these experiences meant to those who lived through them.

The museum is located on rue Hébert and welcomes visitors during weekday hours, with accessible routes throughout the building. You can move between the three floors by stairs, though the layout allows you to explore each level at your own pace.

The second floor displays original prison doors bearing inscriptions left by former detainees. These doors come from the actual locations where resistance members and deportees were held, preserving their personal messages from this period.
