Approximately 600,000 people were interned there.  <\/p><p>  The main innovation of the Vichy regime was the creation of transit camps. Internees were held there while awaiting deportation to Nazi extermination camps. The best-known transit camps were Pithiviers, Beaune-la-Rolande, and Drancy, which would become the hub for the deportation of Jews to Auschwitz.  <\/p><p>  The internment of Jews was the result of anti-Semitic laws defining the Status of the Jews (the law of October 3, 1940, followed by the law of June 2, 1941). Virtually all Jews arrested following the \u201cgreen ticket\u201d roundups in 1941 and the Vel\u2019 d\u2019Hiv roundup in 1942 were interned at Drancy, which, beginning in August 1941, held only Jewish populations. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dead3b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dead3b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Reference:<\/strong><\/p><p>Association of Deportees from Auschwitz and the Camps of Upper Silesia: <em>Internment Camps in France, 1939\u2013194<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Vichy government\u2019s repressive policies led to the repurposing of camps that had already been used to house Spanish refugees in 1938.
