Description

Details the process between October 1941 and August 1944 whereby French cities, towns, and villages lost most of their public bronze statuary. Conservative estimates are between 1,527 and 1,750 decorative and commemorative monuments in the public domain were removed and destroyed to foster German munitions factories for Hitler's war machines. War memorials and monuments on church property are excluded in this study.
