Paris Libéré!Twelve years, ago when the internet was still young in the public's eyes, Paris.Org
posted the internet's first pages about the liberation of Paris. These pages have, since the,
become some of the classic web pages about that day. In that context, we repost
our 1994 "Commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the Liberation of Paris" celebrating now the
sixty-second anniversary of that day: 25 August 1944.
