Tour of the Merci Train Exhibit - in French

Details

Join Guy Benoit for a captivating guided tour in French of the Merci Train exhibit at the Arizona Capitol. This historic train, also known as the “Forty and Eight,” was a gift from the people of France to the United States in 1949, as a gesture of gratitude for American aid during and after World War II. During the tour, you’ll learn about the train’s unique history, its cultural significance, and the stories behind this extraordinary symbol of friendship between France and America. This is a wonderful opportunity to practice your French while exploring a piece of shared history in a meaningful and engaging setting.
