The old northern entrance to Oradour

    This is the old northern entrance to Oradour-sur-Glane (now closed) and it marks the northern limit of the destruction of the village. Just visible through the gate is the Dagoury house. The building on the extream right is the old kiosk (a modern building) which was used to admit visitors before the Centre de la Mémoire was opened in April 1999.
