The unique architecture of the Musée National de la Résistance is the subject of this Round Table.
After the architects Schmitt and Schmitt-Noesen won the architecture competition for the museum, it was inaugurated in 1956. Since then, the museum, the former court and the employment office have shaped the image of the city of Esch. It is an impressive and complex building. Matt's parvis and its columns remind the building of a "refuge" or a "cathedral under the open sky".
Between 2018 and 2023, the museum has been completely renewed and enlarged. Since March 2024, the museum has a new permanent exhibition with a completely revised museography, on an area three times larger.
In this round table, a look is also thrown at the seven projects that were not selected during the architectural competition.
