Site Memorial du Camp des Milles

Reviewed By SusanSnyc

We spent several hours at this memorial and educational exhibit housed in a former tile factory and used first by the French govenment and then by the Nazis and Vichy government as an interment camp from 1939 to 1942. We found the exhibit sobering and educational. We purchased the english audio guide which we found helpful, although it took a bit of experimenting to sync to the exhibit (especially to the introductory film.) It was worth the effort although there are few audio visual exhibits that do not have an english audio translation. There are also a few that are in english since the speakers are Americans who were interned there as children but who were able to escape or leave as part of a rescue effort. (Much of the text in the exhibit is presented both in french and in english.) We visited as a day trip from our summer hoilday stay in Aix-en-Provence and it was a quick trip by Uber or taxi. (It is closer than the train station to the city of Aix.) We visited on a Sunday when buses do not run, but we were told at the Aix tourist center that a bus is an easy way to get there and back. Leave plenty of time to visit all exhibits on the site including the permanent memorial to the over eleven thousand Jewish children who were deported from France to Aushwitz from 1940-1942, many from Les Milles. We wished that our adult and teen children had been with us on this trip to see this and recommend a visit to anyone visiting this part of France. A side note: We were two of a handful of visitors that day and it often felt like we were the only people in the building. We spoke to the helpful staff who said that they get visits from many school groups during the school year. Also, much of the building that houses exhibits is well air conditioned in the summer and heated in the winter, but the parts of the building that were used to house the prisoners have been left "as it was", so to experience at least some of the extreme conditions.
