Mémorial des Martyrs de la Déportation

square de l’Ile de France, 4th

This sobering tribute to the 200,000 Jews, Communists, homosexuals and Résistants deported to concentration camps from France during World War II is located at the island’s eastern tip. A blind staircase descends to river-level chambers lined with tiny lights. A barred window looks on to the Seine.
