What was the compiegne in World War 1?
Compiegne was the place in France where Germany officially agreed to the armistice that ended the war. It took place in one of the cars in the train belonging to the French general, Foch. In 1940, when Germany defeated France in World War II, Hitler made the French sign their surrender in the same train car that the Germans had surrendered in in 1918 (the French had made it into a memorial). Afterward, Hitler had the train destroyed except for the one car, which was destroyed later as Germany lost that war too.
Is there a memorial where the world war 1 armistice was signed and if so where is it located?
The Armistice was signed in a railroad car on a siding in the Compiegne Forest. The train car was put in a museum, but Hitler had it hauled out when the Germans conquered France and made the French sign their WWII surrender to Germany in the same train car. In order to avoid possibly being forced to sign another humiliating document in this car, the Germans dynamited the car near the end of WWII. There are several memorials in the Forest, including a replica train car, where the Armistice was signed.

Was french surrender signed in a rail car?
yes, in WWI they made the Germans surrender in a rail car and it was kept around to show they were stronger. When Germany invaded France they wanted to get back at France for making them sign in that rail car and then putting it on display and then putting Germany in turmoil for many years to come due to the treaty of Versailles . Hitler had the French surrender in that same rail car when he took over France in the early years of the war, then he had it taken back to Berlin and brought it in parades and showed it off to the public. Near the end of WWII Hitler didn't want the shame of surrendering in that same rail car again so he had it burned to the ground.
