 After his father died he inherited all his parents owned, so he never had economical problems during his life.  In the university, Shuman took place in Unitas Corporation,where the most member were teologysts, but he was very young so nothing imporntant happened.

 When the first World War was finished he started working as a lawyer in Metz.  In 1940, because of his expertise on Germany, Schuman was called to become a member of Paul Reynaud's wartime government.  Later that year, he was arrested for acts of resistance and protest against Nazi methods.  Transferred as a personal prisoner of Gauleiter Joseph Buerckel, he escaped in 1942 and joined the French Resistance.  Although his life was still at risk, he spoke to friends about a Franco-German and European reconciliation that must take place after the end of hostilities, as he had already done in

European Politics  Schuman later served as Minister of Justice before becoming the first President of the European Parliamentary Assembly which bestowed on him by acclamation the title 'Father of Europe'.  In 1958 he received the Karlspreis, an Award by the German city of Aachen to people who contributed to the European idea and European peace, commemorating Charlemagne, ruler of what is today France and Germany, who resided and is buried at Aachen.

Memorials  The Schuman District of Brussels is named in his honour.  There are a lot of monuments in his honour in many places in Europe like in the European Parlament.  A Social Science University named after him lies in Strasbourg (France) along with the Avenue du President Robert Schuman in that city's European Quarter. In Luxembourg there is a Rond Point Schuman, Boulevard Robert Schuman and a Robert Schuman Building, of the European Parliament.  The house where he was born was restored by the European Parliament and can be visited; as can his home in Scy-Chazelle just outside Metz.
