Photographer’s Note

B&W seems to me the best way to show this place, coming stright from the past and horror...

Oradour-sur-Glane (Occitan: Orador de Glana) is a town and commune in the Haute-Vienne département of west-central France.

The original village was destroyed on June 10, 1944, when 642 of its inhabitants were murdered by a German Waffen-SS company. A new village was built post-war on a nearby site and the original has been maintained as a memorial.
