Sabotage of the Artillery Park at Grenoble on the night of 13th / 14th November 1943 by the French Resistance. Detonations were put in position near some 30 tons of powder and 300 tons of ammunition before being blown up.
The ammunition blew up at several intervals throughout the whole night. Hostages were arrested and the patriots sent an ultimatum to the Germans demanding their immediate release which the Germans refused and the destruction of the barracks " de Bonne" was decided on and carried out on 2nd December.
