Musee National Clemenceau - de Lattre

Two Destinies, One Village At the top of the hill in Mouilleron-Saint-Germain (formerly Mouilleron-en-Pareds), the Clemenceau-de Lattre National Museum offers a unique journey through 20th-century French history. This exceptional site brings together the birthplaces of two major figures of the Republic: Georges Clemenceau, the "Father of Victory" of 1918, and Marshal Jean de Lattre de Tassigny, a key figure in the Liberation of 1945. Through a modern and engaging museum experience, visitors explore the personal lives of these two statesmen, born just a few meters from each other in this small village in the Vendée region, and discover how their rural roots shaped their national destinies. In 2026, the museum continues to captivate visitors with its immersive exhibits that blend personal belongings, archival documents, and interactive digital displays. A visit to Clemenceau's house, preserved in its original state, contrasts with the space dedicated to de Lattre, offering a comprehensive overview of the crises and triumphs of contemporary France. Between the allotment gardens and the exhibition halls, the site invites profound reflection on commitment, courage, and attachment to the land, making this Vendée village a true memorial to liberty.
