==Legacy== [[File:Jean Moulin with a scarf and fedora by Marcel Bernard.jpg|thumb|right|A famous photograph of Jean Moulin with a scarf and fedora, taken in 1940 by Marcel Bernard]] [[File:Resistance.jpg|thumb|right|Drawing of Jean Moulin based on the iconic photograph with a fedora and scarf and a [[Cross of Lorraine#Symbol in France|cross of Lorraine]] in the background.]] [[File:Jean Moulin. Monument.jpg|left|thumb|Monument to Jean Moulin at Aix-les-Bains.]] Ashes that are thought to be those of Jean Moulin were buried in [[Le Père Lachaise Cemetery]] in Paris and later transferred to the [[Panthéon]] on 19 December 1964. The speech given at the transfer site by [[André Malraux]], a writer and cabinet minister, is one of the most famous speeches in French history. France's French education curriculum commemorates Moulin as a symbol of the French resistance and a model of civic virtue, moral rectitude and patriotism. As of 2015, Jean Moulin was the fifth most popular name for a French school,<ref>[http://www.lemonde.fr/les-decodeurs/article/2015/04/18/de-jules-ferry-a-pierre-perret-l-etonnant-palmares-des-noms-d-ecoles-de-colleges-et-de-lycees-en-france_4613091_4355770.html#partie1 De Jules Ferry à Pierre Perret, l'étonnant palmarès des noms d'écoles, de collèges et de lycées en France], Le Monde (''tr.

[[File:Memorial Jean Moulin Saint-Gingolph.jpg|thumb|right|Jean Moulin memorial in [[Saint-Gingolph,_Haute-Savoie|Saint-Gingolph]]]] The photograph with a fedora and scarf has become a popular representation of Jean Moulin and more generally the Resistance movement; in it, Jean Moulin seems to hide from onlookers to protect his clandestine life.<ref>{{cite web |title=Jean Moulin photographié par son ami Marcel Bernard / hiver 1939–1940 |url=https://www.museeliberation-leclerc-moulin.paris.fr/ressources/ressource-pour-les-scolaires/jean-moulin-photographie-par-son-ami-marcel-bernard-hiver |website=Musée de la Libération de Paris – Musée du Général Leclerc – Musée Jean Moulin |access-date=10 August 2022|language=fr|quote=Cette photographie a fortement participé à fixer l’image du résistant entré dans la clandestinité, et qui cherche à se cacher des regards. }}</ref> However, the photograph itself was taken in Montpellier in February 1940 during a family visit,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Levisse-Touzé |first1=Christine |title=Jean Moulin |url=https://histoire-image.org/etudes/jean-moulin |website=L’Histoire par l’image |access-date=10 August 2022 |quote=Venu passer quelques jours chez sa mère et sa sœur à Montpellier mi-février 1940, Jean Moulin est pris en photo par son ami d’enfance Marcel Bernard, aux Arceaux, près de la Promenade du Peyrou.}}</ref> before his first arrest in June 1940 and subsequent decision to join the Resistance. In 1967, the [[Centre national Jean-Moulin de Bordeaux]] was created in [[Bordeaux]]. Its archives contain documents on the Second World War and the Resistance. The Centre provides pedagogical supports and research material on the involvement of Jean Moulin in the Resistance. Another member of the resistance, [[Antoinette Sasse]], created a bequest in her will to found The [[Musée Jean Moulin]] in 1994.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.historia.fr/expositions/antoinette-sasse-artiste-et-r%C3%A9sistante|title=Antoinette Sasse, artiste et résistante|website=www.historia.fr|language=fr|access-date=2017-02-18}}</ref> The 1969 [[Jean Pierre Melville]] fictional film ''[[Army of Shadows]]'', based on a book of the same name, depicts, through the character of [[Luc Jardie]], played by [[Paul Meurisse]], several events in Moulin's war experience but with some inaccuracy; in the film, his homosexual male secretary is replaced by a female assistant. Two French made-for-television films deal with Jean Moulin: in 2002, ''Jean Moulin'', by [[Yves Boisset]] and, in 2003, ''Jean Moulin, une affaire française'', by Pierre Aknine. [[File:French 2 Franc coin Jean Moulin 1993.png|left|thumb|Commemorative 2 franc coin.]]In 1993, commemorative French 2, 100 and 500 franc coins were issued, showing a partial image of Moulin against the [[Croix de Lorraine]] and using a fedora-and-scarf photograph, which is well recognised in France.
