EXPOSITION "CLEMENCEAU ET LA JUSTICE"

Exhibition in partnership with the Musée Clemenceau - Paris.

Every day except Monday from 10am to 12.30pm and from 2pm to 5pm.

Throughout his life, Georges Clemenceau was guided by his obsession with justice.
The name he gave, in 1880, to the newspaper of his first essential struggles.
It made him one of the prostestors at the Bordeaux Assembly against violence against Alsatians and Lorrains who wanted to remain French.
It was still in the name of the Justine that he campaigned for amnesty for the Communards.
He also called for amnesty for colonised peoples, workers and the poor.

The exhibition begins in 1858, when he first became aware of the ideal of justice following his father's arrest, his time in prison, his fight for amnesty for the Communards and his political commitment to implementing a republican programme with the ideal at its heart.

The exhibition also looks at the Tiger's major battles: prisons, the Dreyfus Affair and the death penalty.
