Charles de Gaulle Foundation

The Charles de Gaulle Foundation is located in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises and is a tribute to the former French president and founder of the Fifth Republic. The center offers a deep insight into his life and work. Visitors can view the extensive collection of documents, photographs and personal items covering De Gaulle's political and military career. A highlight is the documentation of his role in the Second World War and the founding of the Fifth Republic.

The adjacent garden and the chapel where De Gaulle and his wife are buried add a thoughtful touch to the visit. The foundation is an ideal place to learn more about French political developments in the 20th century. The architecture of the building itself, which is modern and functional, also offers an interesting contrast to the historical significance of the place. A visit to the Charles de Gaulle Foundation allows you to immerse yourself in the history of France and understand De Gaulle's impact on the modern nation.
