Musée de la Résistance et de la Déportation d'Auch, World War II museum in Auch, France

The museum displays 700 artifacts including uniforms, weapons, photographs, and documents that tell the story of local resistance during World War II.

The underground location of the exhibition space represents the clandestine nature of resistance operations during the German occupation of France.

The museum welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with entry fees of 3 euros for adults and free for children.
