[642] The Nazis massacred the entire village of Oradour-sur-Glane in France, killing 642 people, including 247 children. Unlike other Nazi village massacre sites, which were razed or rebuilt and marked by monuments or fields of roses, the charred remains of the village have been left untouched.

The sad thing is, many of the perpetrators were Alsatian “malgré nous”, French citizens who were forcibly conscripted when the Nazi Reich annexed Alsace-Lorraine.
