Another interesting thing. In France, there are very few museums that deal with either the Resistance or WWII. I found one. Their glory days seem to date back to Napoleon and WWII is better forgotten.
London, on the other hand has several musuems dealing with WWII.

The four I either visited or know of are :
- The D-Day memorial in Caen, Normandy (D-Day)
- The Liberation Museum in the Hotel des Invalides, Paris (Mostly devoted to resistance movements and Free French units)
- The Tanks Museum in Saumur, Loire (tanks from both World Wars to the present)
- The Army WW2 museum in the Hotel des Invalides, Paris (the whole conflict)
I'm pretty sure you'd find some more through a Google search, though.
