VERDUN TOWN HALL
Go there and contact
The City Hall took place in a former mansion built by Nicolas Japin then Commissioner of State powders in 1623. Upon his death, the building returned to the Marchioness de Boudeville and then to the city that became owner in 1737. It was in 1865 that he was appointed a building on the left wing where a museum will be installed. Following a fire in 1894, a carved pediment and a campanile will be added to the central building. On the first floor, the Council Room has a tiled stove and beautiful woodwork. In honour salons, paintings pay tribute to illustrious local characters. The City Hall maintains and exhibits documents in the War Museum. Some of the medals exhibited were handed over by Raymond Poincaré to the battle in the underground citadel. Verdun, the most decorated city of France, also received the 1939-1945 War Cross. Flags, photographs and war crosses awarded to the destroyed villages of the red area are also visible.
