From the Mayor's message: "Many people ignore that there existed in France, from 1941-1944, a concentration camp, the camp of Natzweiler... That is why the erection at the Père Lachaise cemetery of the Monument to the memory of the victims of the camp of Natzweiler-Struthof, accompanied by the publication of the present brochure, was indispensable.... In hommage to the victims, this monument is also a call to vigilance, at a time when acts of intolerance and anti-Semitism are becoming more numerous. May evoking those terrible times contribute to none becoming forgetful and to the inacceptable never occurring again." Bertrand Delanoé.
