Description
2 Euro Commemorative Coin France 2012 100th Anniversary of the birth of Abbe Pierre, famous in France as protector of the poor The issue honours Henri Grouès, better known as Abbé Pierre, who was born in 1912 and devoted his life to people without housing and to the fight against social exclusion. After the war, he founded the Emmaus movement, combining practical self-help with public advocacy. His urgent appeals during the severe winter of 1954 left a lasting mark on France’s social conscience. The coin therefore commemorates not only a well-known figure, but also an enduring responsibility for dignity and shelter.
