As every year, the re-enactment of an exodus will precede the arrival of the Carentan Liberty March!

If you’d like to take part, meet up on Saturday June 7 at 3:00 pm on the esplanade of the Aquadick swimming pool, arriving at Place du Grand Valnoble at 4:00 pm!

This event will once again be eagerly awaited, as it pays tribute to the civilian victims of war and to the people forced to take to the roads to flee the fighting.

It is therefore important for participants to maintain the seriousness and attention to detail for which the re-enactment of the Carentan exodus is renowned:

  • Sober attire
  • No lipstick
  • No pin-up
  • No ballroom/wedding attire
  • No weapons
  • No Resistance armbands

The organization reserves the right to refuse anyone who does not meet these criteria.

If you’d like to take part but are unsure about what to wear, don’t hesitate to ask the question via Messenger on the Carentan 1944 page.
