“They were unstoppable,” General Leclerc had said about them. Here at the Aux Républicains espagnols composante principale de la colonne Dronne Plaque, we remember the brave Spanish Republicans who fought for the liberation of Paris. The Aux Républicains espagnols composante principale de la colonne Dronne Plaque commemorates their role in the Dronne Column, the first French unit to enter Paris during the liberation. These Spanish Republicans, veterans of the fight against Franco in the Spanish Civil War, were part of the 9th company of the Régiment de marche du Tchad. Known as “La Nueve”, they were led by French Captain Raymond Dronne. On August 24, 1944, Dronne’s column, with La Nueve at its heart, raced into Paris. Their half-tracks, bearing names like “Guadalajara” and “Madrid” after battles in Spain, became symbols of defiance against fascism. Although they were the first to enter Paris and played a crucial role in its liberation, their contribution was largely forgotten for decades. The Aux Républicains espagnols composante principale de la colonne Dronne Plaque stands in solemn remembrance of their bravery and the complexities of history. Their story reminds us that freedom is often achieved through the combined efforts of people from diverse backgrounds, all united against tyranny.
