WWII Left Bank Walking Tour Paris: Fall, Resistance & Liberation

For the first stop of the tour, we'll talk about the Fall of Paris. Right in front of a very important building for the French Republic, I'll try to give you a good sense of how the French army lost the war so quickly in 1940.

From the Luxembourg garden, we'll peek at the Panthéon, where characters linked to the War are buried!

Pass by, no stop

Very quick stop to show you a quick sign of the war

In our third actual stop, we'll talk extensively about the Parisian resistance, and especially the beginnings of the resistance. We will follow the journey of a French female Resistance fighter, Agnès Humbert.

I will show you some signs of the war that still exist on the most famous french university: The Sorbonne!
