Montoire's historic train station, the scene of the handshake between Marshal Pétain and Hitler in 1940, and the Musée des Rencontres, a must-see.

The handshake between Marshal Pétain and Hitler on October 24, 1940, on the platform of this station, went down in history as sealing the collaboration between the Vichy regime and Nazi Germany. It is an understatement to say that the town of Montoire kept this episode as a ball and chain for a long time and also that it is largely honored to have opened this museum contributing more than ever to the knowledge of this dark page of our contemporary history.
