Lonely Planet review

Nazi Germany surrendered unconditionally at on 7 May 1945 in US General Dwight D Eisenhower's war room in Reims, now a museum known as the Musée de la Reddition . The original Allied battle maps are still affixed to the walls of the one-time technical college, now known as Lycée Franklin Roosevelt. There's a film in French, German and English.

At Stalin's insistence, another surrender document was signed two days later in Soviet-occupied Berlin.
