Alfred Dreyfus statue to finally receive permanent home in central Paris

A statue of Capt. Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish French军官 wrongly accused of treason in 1894, has spent 40 years being relocated around Paris without a permanent home. The French army initially denied placing it at l’École Militaire, where Dreyfus was disgraced during one of France’s most infamous episodes of antisemitism. The statue was briefly displayed in various locations, including the Tuileries Garden and near the former Cherche-Midi jail. Now, 120 years after Dreyfus was exonerated and posthumously promoted to brigadier general, his statue will be unveiled in central Paris on July 12, National Dreyfus Commemoration Day. President Emmanuel Macron and Paris Mayor Emmanuel Grégoire will attend the event, marking a symbolic recognition of justice overcoming historical injustice.
