The Camp des Milles Memorial Site of the only internment camp which was used for transit and deportation, still in good condition in France, opens to the public in 2012: more than 10 000 people were interned here between 1939 and 1942, including many intellectuals and artists (Max Ernst, Hans Bellmer, Franz Hessel ...). The texts, photographs and archival documents of this work restore the strength of this commemorative site.
