Oradour-sur-Glane was totally destroyed by Der Führer Regiment of the 2nd Waffen-SS Panzer Division, Das Reich on 10 June 1944. All men were shot. All women and children were put inside the church which was then burned to the ground. In all 642 villagers were murdered. This atrocity may have been done in revenge for the assassination of a German officer but not explanation has ever been given. The village has been left exactly as it was as a memorial.
