Come discover a virtual reality experience with 3D headsets!

Evolve in interactive room scale and with its spatialized, around the graffiti that the resisters engraved during their detention in prison.
Drawn from the mine or fingertips, they tell the story of occupied France and those who were willing to sacrifice their lives to fight it. Engraved in the plaster of the walls, in the stone, the wood of the doors and the prison furniture, the aluminum of the dishes, inscribed on the pages of a book, the graffiti found in the prisons deliver names, dates, sometimes addresses and telephone numbers, confessions, farewells, wills, newspapers, declarations of love, questions, drawings and poems.
You will find yourself in a cell of a French prison of 9m², as it could be the day after the Liberation. A cell whose layers of graffiti (words, drawings, calendars) have sedimented over time until forming a vast fresco of motifs superimposed on each other. Cracks with light and sound pulsations encourage the visitor to approach the walls. If you look closely at the cracks, you’ll see graffiti. Graffiti that would have escaped the successive brushing that is usually used to erase them.

This cultural institution of the City of Limoges illustrates the values of citizens and solidarity carried by the Resistance during the Second World War. Dedicated to all those who have sacrificed themselves to defend the fundamental values of the Republic, its vocation is to bring memory to life by offering a place for teaching and disseminating information, especially for young audiences. Located in the former convent of the Sisters of Providence of the seventeenth and eighteenth century, in the heart of the district of the City, it proposes on 1400 m2 a museum tracing rigorously the historical facts of the Second World War and especially the Resistance, occupation and deportation in the Haute-Vienne.
Presented in ten sequences, starting in 1939, this dynamic journey stems from the scientific program developed by Olivier Wieviorka, a national historian and specialist of the Second World War, Pascal Plas, historian specializing in the Second World War in the Centre-West, and Annie Mar
