Funerals of Robert SCHUMAN, one of the Founding Fathers of the EU, in Scy-Chazelles, France, September 1963. Rene PLEVEN, Antoine PINAY, Guy MOLLET and Louis JOXE are, among others, attending the ceremony.

Eighty years ago, on 7 May 1945 in Reims, the unconditional surrender of the German Third Reich was signed. The Second World War in Europe had come to an end. The European landscapes, these streets, still carry the weight of history—where lives were changed forever and where Europe’s future was shaped. The Omaha Beach in Normandy, the remains of the Ghetto walls in Warsaw, the Bundestag of Berlin,... the world changed here... And though time has passed, the echoes of history reverberate still. The material may not be edited and must be shown in its entirety.

Memoclip: "History of a Treaty"

The Schuman Declaration was presented by French Foreign minister Robert Schuman on 9 May 1950 in Paris . "Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity". It proposed the creation of a European Coal and Steel Community, whose members would pool coal and steel production. The ECSC was an organisation of six European countries created to regulate their industrial production under a centralised authority. It was formally established in 1951 by the Treaty of Paris, signed by Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany. The ECSC started the process of formal integration which ultimately led to the European Union.
