Compiègne Forest

[edit]
Main article:Compiègne Forest

TheGlade of the Armistice in theCompiègne Forest was the site of the signing of two armistices; those of11 November 1918 and22 June 1940. Hitler specifically chose the location of the second, and had the original signing carriage moved from Paris to Compiègne, as an irony for the defeated French.

The site still houses several memorials to the 1918 armistice, including a copy of the original railway carriage. The original,Marshal Foch's Carriage was taken toGermany as a trophy of victory following the second armistice. Various rumors about what happened to this railway-carriage thereafter, have flourished ever since. Some believe it was destroyed by theSS inThuringia in April 1945; others say this happened inBerlin, but most likely was it destroyed during an allied air-raid on Berlin. The latter version seems most plausible, sinceFerdinand Foch's carriage actually was displayed at a Berlin museum.[11][12][13]
