On the way back to Metz, we went to Besancon to see the Citadel, a fortress above the city built by Vauban, Louis XIV's military engineer. A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Citadel houses a number of museums and a zoo, making good use of a large expanse of land overlooking the River Doubs. We spent time in the Museum of the Resistance and the Deportation, which detailed activities in the region during World War II.
