Description

Delve into the stories of the women who played a pivotal role in the Resistance in Annemasse during World War II.
Starting at the Town Hall Square and passing through parks and iconic sites in the city center, follow the guide on a journey to discover local women. Notably, Mila Racine and Marianne Cohn, who risked their lives to save Jewish children by smuggling them into Switzerland. Thanks to its strategic location, Annemasse became a safe haven during World War II for dissidents and those facing persecution. Recommended for ages 12 and up.
