The ammunition depot at Taller

Description

On 27 July 1944, Henri Ferrand, a young Resistance fighter aged 24, consulted the departure sign: "Ammunition train for Rennes, departure at 9pm". He went to the tracks and put down his two plastic blocks. A few minutes later, a huge explosion shook the Laluque station.
This supply train, of capital importance to the Germans, had been slowly supplied via the ammunition depot at Taller, the second most important on French territory. Today there is nothing left of this depot, except for some ammunition found from time to time in the forest. The route of the old railway line is still visible, however, hidden in the vegetation.
