Raphaelle Crevet | Certified Tour Guide, Paris, FranceStewart Ross’ book is full of interesting documents and research, it put you well on the tracks of Marie Antoinette, Danton, Robespierre and many more, whether in Paris or in Versailles, extremely interesting and easy to read!
Jane Gabin, Amazon customerLavishly illustrated, gripping guide to the Paris that existed under Nazi rule.
This is a fantastic new book that provides extensive information for both those planning a trip and for armchair historians. While there are are walks that take you past famous places made infamous by Nazi rule, there is also a lot of detailed information. Stew Ross provides details about many topics that are not necessarily popular, including anti-semitism and collaboration. Photos add poignancy. Paris is haunted by its past, and these pages show you exactly why. The days of the Occupation and the Resistance are not that distant.
Is this the same address where during WWII a doctor lived who was a serial murderer? It looks like it has been remodeled compared to its appearance then.
Yes. The original building has been demolished in the post-war era. Doctor Petiot’s plate can be seen at the Prefecture de police’s Criminology Museum in Paris.
Henry is correct. The original building was demolished in the 1950s. Petiot and his family lived in another building located on Rue Caumartin. His medical office was in that building and the plate was attached next to the entrance door. STEW
Yes, it is. Original building has been demolished in the post-war years. Doctor Petiot’s orginal plate can be seen at the Prefecture de Police Criminology Museum in Paris.
