16th - Unusual Architecture & Saturday Selective

Chateau de Chaumont, Mainsat

The front facade of the chateau, destroyed by fire in 1985

Part of the wording on the memorial stone:

En ces lieux de 1940 à 1945
ont été accueillis et cachés
des familles et des centaines
d'enfants juifs

From 1940 to 1945, this place welcomed and hid Jewish families and hundreds of children.
- Lynn's perfect translation.
