Doctor Désourteaux's car

Peugeot model 202
This is one of the best known scenes in Oradour.
As you can see, the events of that horrific day appear to be frozen in time.

The Village Green is behind me as I'm shooting the car, which is sitting outside the pharmacy.

Canon EOS 7D
1/40s f/10.0 at 28.0mm iso125 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Oradour, poor Oradour ... our hearts are all with you even today, and thanks to those who help keeping this small village as it was after the atrocities they had to suffer, we'll remember them forever, for all the generations to come.
