At the end of 2005, French President Jacques Chirac inaugurated the European Center of the Deported Resistor. This center is located a few steps from the site of Struthof, the only Nazi concentration camp on French territory. We are here in the valley, about fifty kilometers south of Strasbourg. The concentration camp of Natzweiler-Struthof saw deportees from all over Europe perish. They were mostly political prisoners, opponents of the Nazi regime, and resistors. Norwegians, Dutch, Belgians, or French, they arrived here from 1943 awaiting their trial in Germany. After the summer of 1944, they were joined by gypsies and Jews, transferred from ghettos and other concentration camps. All were put to work there.
