The Musee Charles de Gaulle, housed within the Hotel des Invalides, occupies the space where the general planned his resistance from London. Its defining feature is the circular screening room where archival footage plays on a continuous loop, anchoring the visitor in the urgency of nineteen forty. Inside these walls, curators mapped out the liberation of France using thousands of original documents and personal artifacts. De Gaulle once sat in this very district, orchestrating a movement that salvaged a nation during its darkest years.
