oradour sur glane

We've been having nice weather in Limoges lately so yesterday we decided to go to Oradour sur Glane, some 20 minutes from Limoges. It's a small village where on 10th June 1944, Nazis burnt the entire village and the whole thing has been preserved. 

Actually, i only found out about it sbab lepas tgk cite Silent Hill i googled "ghost towns" and ade this place. Anyway, the town looked serene, maybe because it was such a beautiful day. But it was creepy quand meme.

Imagine, the germans suro all the women and children go to the church to have their paper checked pastu bakar the church and shot everyone trying to escape. 


The men were brought to barns and garages and burnt as well.

Main street.

Doctor's car.

A well where they campak people inside.

Dahlah tu, actually the germans were supposed to attack Oradour sur Vayres, a nearby town tapi diorang got confused tak pasal2 an entire defenseless village kene bakar. World War II is mind-blowing. Seriously. Tak faham how people could have done what they did.
