The forest of Risoux is a forest of the the Jura.

The forest of Risoux was an important place during the second world war. Indeed, it is by this forest that many Jews could escape the deportation thanks to a die imagined by Victoria Cordier, Anne-Marie Im-Hof Piguet and Fred Reymond, between 1941 and 1944: Victoria Cordier crossed with them Risoux of night, and they arrived at the refuge of the Hotel of Italy, in Suisse.
