  Après une exposition visitée en 2014 sur la libération de Lyon et sa région à l'espace Berthelot, j'ai contacté le musée en février pour un partenariat en mai pour les 80 ans de l'armistice. Un très bon accueil avec M Gourdin et ses collègues, et un prêt d'objets et de panneaux à titre gracieux durant un mois... Je recommande vivement
