Beaulieu forge and petrol pump
This view shows another entrance to the Beaulieu blacksmith's forge and the town petrol pump on the Rue Emile Desourteaux. What seems a little strange to 21st centuary safety-concious eyes is that the tram tracks run directly in front of the pump, so anyone buying fuel would be parked on them. To the right rear of this view, some car roofs aer visible. Also see the photograph of the adjacent area to the right of view. The inscription on the plaque reads, "Here at this place of torment a group of men were massacred and burnt by Nazis. Collect your thoughts". See the town plan for location details.
