Reviewed By Hermes_NL - Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The Transportation Camp was opened in 1858 to receive convicts from France who were shipped to the colonies to do forced labour. The most dangerous ones would go to Devil's island offshore Guyana and the other ones to work. The actual city of Saint Laurent was initiated later, around 1880. The Camp closed in 1946 or some say 1954, but has been well preserved since then. You can visit it by yourself or with your tour guide. One of the Baracks has been repurposed to become the Saint Laurent public library.
