FR De cet endroit, en août et septembre 1942, plus de 2000 hommes, femmes et enfants juifs ont été déportés du camp des Milles au camp d'extermination nazi d'Auschwitz, via Drancy.

Réfugiés d'Europe centrale ou juifs de France, ils ont été livrés par le gouvernement de Vichy, avant même l'occupation allemande de la zone sud.

Parmis eux, une centaine d'enfants et d'adolescents, le plus jeune n'avait qu'un an.

Gardons-en la mémoire pour aujourd'hui et pour demain
EN From there, in August and September 1942, more than 2,000 Jewish men, women and children were deported from the Milles Camp to the Nazi extermination camp at Auschwitz, via Drancy.

Refugees from Central Europe or Jews from France, they were delivered by the Vichy government, even before the German occupation of the southern zone.

Among them, about a hundred children and adolescents, the youngest was only one year old.

Let us remember it for today and tomorrow
