World War Two French Resistance in the Loire Valley – Victor’s Story

Recently an American contact of mine mentioned staying at the Chateau de Pray, near Amboise, and it prompted me to mention that I had been contacted by the son of someone who had worked there and had been in the Resistance. He wanted me, and indeed the world, to know his father’s remarkable story, so I am always delighted to pass it on whenever travellers express an interest in the French Resistance. It is, like all these stories, very moving and full of ordinary people doing extraordinary things and if you want to hear it let us know when you book your tour with us.
