De Gaulle avant de Gaulle

Seventeen euros here, seventeen euros at the Musée de l'Armée's own box office. Same price — but look at what those seventeen euros actually buy: the museum states that the exhibition is accessible with the museum ticket. So you are not paying for an exhibition, you are paying for the lot: the Dôme, Napoleon's tomb, the permanent collections, and "De Gaulle avant de Gaulle" in the Historial Charles de Gaulle.

It is free for under-18s, and that rate does not come through this page.

The exhibition follows the start of Charles de Gaulle's military and literary career — the man before the 18 June 1940 appeal, who is the only one most people know.

It runs until June 2027, so there is no hurry: that is the advantage a long exhibition has over a one-night concert.
