Memorial · 1 h · in the forest, 6 km from Compiègne · closed Tuesdays

In a clearing in the Compiègne forest, in the early hours of 11 November 1918, the armistice that ended the First World War was signed in a railway carriage. On 22 June 1940 Hitler chose the same place to humiliate France with the second armistice. Today the carriage stands at the centre of a museum.
