\"PictureParis is a city where history is ubiquitous. Visitors to the city marvel at the opulence of the French monarchy embodied in the Chateau de Versailles, bibliophiles can\u2019t help but imagine the lives of the Lost Generation in the City of Light, illuminated by a wealth of classic literature and Parisians themselves appreciate the paintings, architecture and cobblestone work of Frenchman past. France\u2019s history is surely a proud one, marked by an undeniably French call to civic action. Like any country however, French history does have a dark side, one that needs to be remembered and reflected upon as much as any other period in Gallic history. Paris\u2019 memorial de la Shoah is holding an exhibition until March 22 focusing on La Nuit de Cristal, one of the darkest nights in the history of the Europe\u2019s Jewish population.<\/strong> New York Habitat has dozens of Paris apartments<\/a> available in the city this winter, all with their own unique history and historic arrondissement.<\/p>\n

The La Nuit de Cristal exhibition focuses on the night of the November 9th, 1938 where thousands of Jewish Germans were terrorized, many of them being murdered or sent to concentration camps. Countless Jewish storefronts, homes and synagogues were destroyed or vandalized by the Nazi government. Though the terror campaign occurred in Germany, the historical significance it had on France and the rest of Europe is clear in a modern historical context. <\/strong>The events of the Crystal Night were essentially a prelude to what occurred in many French cities, including Paris throughout the Second World War. For any history buff looking for some insight into WWII while jaunting around the French capital this might be a nice start. From here, buffs can walk the streets of Paris daydreaming of the war that once gripped the city and the brave resistance then eventually led to its liberation.
