Carte détaillant le massacre d'Oradour-sur-Glane qui eut lieu le 10 juin 1944, près de Limoges dans le sud-ouest de la France. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale (1939-45), 643 hommes, femmes et enfants innocents furent tués par des soldats de la 2e division SS Das Reich, en représailles possibles après la capture par la résistance locale du SS Sturmbannführer Helmut Kämpfe (1909-44) dans une ville voisine, la veille.
