  • The Maquis du Mont Mouchet were a group of French resistance fighters during the Second World War that were based at Mont Mouchet. The Germans, having discovered the maquis, made several attacks up until May 1944 with about 3,000 men and using aviation and armoured units. The maquisards fought back fiercely. Little information is available on the German forces. Historians have identified some units: * The , formed from veterans of the eastern front (deployed in the Orléans-Pithiviers sector) * Sicherungs-Regiment 1000 * Aufklärungsabteilung 1000 These were reinforced from: * Regiment 2 of the 2 Ost-Bataillone of the Freiwilligen-Stamm-Division: * The Volga Tatar legion stationed at Puy-en-Velay * The Azerbaijan legion stationed at Rodez (former 804th battalion ?) * The 3rd Battalion of the SS Polizei Regiment 19 * A battery of the artillery regiment 28 (189th reserve division) * Battalion of DCA 958 * 3 motorised response detachments of the Feldgendarmerie * An armored reconnaissance platoon originating from Paris * 2 Luftwaffe squadrons from Aulnat airbase After several days of combat, the final German attack forced the maquisards to fall back and disperse. Out of revenge for their previous losses, the Germans pillaged several of the surrounding villages, including Clavières. In the course of the battles, the French Forces of the Interior sustained severe losses: 238 killed and 180 wounded as well as about 100 hostages executed by the Nazis. (en)
  • La bataille du mont Mouchet opposant des maquisards à des éléments de l'armée allemande a eu lieu les 10 et 11 juin 1944. Le mont Mouchet, situé sur un plateau à cheval sur trois départements, Cantal, Haute-Loire et Lozère, est un lieu de rassemblement de résistants et de réfractaires au STO en mai et juin 1944. Des éléments allemands et des volontaires de l'est attaquent le réduit les 10 et 11 juin 1944. La plupart des maquisards purent s'échapper et rejoindre le réduit de la Truyère. Les récits les plus fantaisistes ont circulé sur les combats et sur les pertes des deux côtés. Les recherches d'Eugène Martres, professeur d'histoire et correspondant du Comité d'histoire de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, dans les archives françaises, alliées et allemandes confrontées aux témoignages des maquisards et des soldats allemands, permettent maintenant de connaître l'origine du rassemblement, le déroulement de la bataille et les pertes des deux côtés.
