Very detailed museum that explains thoroughly how the French people lived, resisted and fought during the German occupation. You need to read a lot in order to enjoy the visit, but the explanations are well written and presented in French, English and German. There are not many objects, if you don't want to read about the history, there is not much to see. If you live in Grenoble you'll want to take note of the addresses mentioned in the permanent exhibit, because most are within walking distance and the buildings usually have a little plaque explaining its importance during the war. This museum makes you feel very close to this dark period in history, not only in time, but specially when you realize that a lot of the events happened in places where now there are stores, shopping malls and hotels.

This little museum is a treasure of information about the Grenoble area during WW2. The emphasis is on the many French who supported Allied efforts with underground fighting. The museum also details the treatment of Jewish citizens during the war. It is free and worth your time.
