Thanks for this - an interesting place which I'd never heard of before.

I have a question. What does the Wikipedia English language entry for
Châteaudun mean when it says that, during WW2, its new German owners
'undertook infrastructure projects including the construction of zones of

I assume it's a translation problem but I can't get my head round it; neither
the French nor German Wikipedia entries appear to have anything equivalent.

Can anyone help?
