Museum founder Michel Brissard discovered one of the world's rarest WWII artifacts at a flea market - a German Enigma cipher machine. He purchased it for just 50 francs, thinking it was 'some kind of typewriter.' The Enigma machines were used by Nazi Germany to encrypt military communications and were famously cracked by Alan Turing's team at Bletchley Park.
