Musse de Legion Etrangere (foreign legion )

1962, the Command of the Foreign Legion (COMLE) was transferred to the town of Aubagne. COMLE is also home to the French Foreign Legion Museum, which helps visitors distinguish myth from reality. More than the institution itself, it is the men who came to commit themselves to France that arouse public interest. For nearly two centuries, cinema and literature have been a privileged source of inspiration and have contributed to forging the legend.

The French Foreign Legion Museum of Aubagne is a place of remembrance, intended to honor the memory of these thousands of anonymous heroes who died on distant battlefields. The objects on display have a soul; they are the depositaries of the great and small history of the Legion, between epic expeditions and the difficulties of everyday life.
