Overview
- President Emmanuel Macron led wreath-layings at each attack site before presiding over the inauguration of the November 13 Memory Garden near City Hall.
- Church bells rang and monuments were lit as names of the dead—including two survivors later recognized after suicides—were read and inscribed on commemorative plaques.
- Salah Abdeslam remains imprisoned for life with 19 others convicted, and prosecutors this week charged his former partner in a separate terrorism plot investigation.
- Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said the threat level remains very high, with authorities most concerned about self-radicalized individuals and online propaganda rather than large coordinated cells.
- A Terrorism Memorial Museum planned for 2029 will conserve about 500 family-donated artifacts, from a Bataclan concert ticket to a bullet-riddled café menu.
