Memorials Colonne Dronne

These plaques commemorate the deployment of the 9th "La Nueve" Company, commanded by Captain Raymond Dronne, of the 2nd French Armored Division (Division Leclerc) who played a major role in the liberation of Paris. The majority of the troops consisted of Spanish Republicans who had fled from Spain and fought against fascism.
