Jean Moulin, 14e arrondissement, Paris

MAX
PSEUDONYME DE JEAN MOULIN
CHEF DE LA RÉSISTANCE
1899 – 1943
DÉLÉGUÉ DU GÉNÉRAL DE GAULLE'

12 rue Cassini. Jean Moulin lived here on the second and third floors for a few months during Nazi-occupied France, before being arrested. He is now immortalised in the Panthéon. With a preface by de Gaulle, Moulin's Premier combat was published posthumously by Minuit in 1947.
