At the Alsace-Moselle Memorial in Schirmeck, the Wall of Names commemorates the Alsatian and Mosellan victims of the Second World War, a period during which these territories were annexed by Germany on several occasions.
Supported by the Grand Est Region, the memorial project brings together nearly 44,000 names. The “Mémoires Grand Est” database provides individual records for each victim, helping visitors connect with the people behind the names and giving a human dimension to this collective remembrance.
Educational workshops, exhibitions, podcasts and conferences extend the project’s reach, helping preserve the memory of these events and pass their history on to future generations.
