The liberation of Paris from the occupation of Nazi German forces.

On September 3, 1944, corresponding to August 25, 1944, Paris was liberated after four years of occupation by Nazi German forces.

Allied forces under the command of General Charles de Gaulle entered Paris, and after years of darkness, the city once again became the free capital of France.

The liberation of Paris was one of the turning points of World War II and a symbol of the end of Nazi domination over Europe.
