Marseille will have a school named Mélinée and Missak Manouchian in 2025. The establishment should open next September.
The history of the Manouchians is linked to that of Marseille. A bust in honor of the communist resistance fighter is also erected in the city, which will dedicate a ceremony in his memory on Saturday. The mayor chose a school because it is a place of heritage, and it must be remembered that he requested this pantheonization from April 2022.
