A poignant journey to Niederbronn-les-Bains, where the history of the Second World War unfolds. Discover "War Fates," a moving exhibition at the Albert Schweitzer Centre; 12 destinies, 15,809 victims, a memory to preserve.

The small spa town of Niederbronn-les-Bains was mostly spared the fighting of the Second World War. But, towards the end of the war, gunfire broke out there. In 1961, the "exhumation" service of the Volksbund began transferring bodies to Niederbronn-les-Bains. The cemetery was completed there in 1966.

In May 2009, the Albert Schweitzer Center inaugurated the permanent exhibition "Destins of War". It presents 12 particular fates chosen from among the 15 victims.
