SWISS MATERNITY HOSPITAL IN ELNE - CHÂTEAU D'EN BARDOU
The Swiss Maternity Hospital in Elne, a symbol of hope in the midst of horror, a poignant museum to visit.
If ever there was a place of remembrance in the département, a symbol of hope, this is it. Here, between 1939 and 1944, a courageous young Swiss woman, Elisabeth Eidenbenz, enabled Spanish, Jewish and Gypsy women to give birth with dignity to almost 600 children. A life-saving stopover during a period when the word "humanism" no longer had any meaning. Today, the Swiss Maternity Hospital in Elne is a fascinating museum where you can delve into an obscure part of our past.
