Foyer des libertés (Cradle of Freedom) (Museum Space)
"Villard at that time had become a semi-abandoned town. And then two hundred high-spirited young Poles arrived, in good health, full of energy and imagination, accompanied by a group of distinguished yet lively middle-aged men and women, to create an improbable Polish school. None of these foreigners doubted for a moment that Hitler would be defeated and that Poland would be reborn from the school. They expressed this certainty forcefully, through their words and their actions.

This was inaugurated on 20 November 2021 at the Maison du Patrimoine (Heritage Centre) in Villard-de-Lans. More than an exhibition, Foyer des libertés is a permanent museum space in the heart of the village in the former town hall, a short distance from the Château that once housed the Polish high school.
