Main Article Content
The aim of this paper consist in approaching the socio-health reality of more than 210,000 civilian refugees who crossed the Pyrenean border during the winter of 1939. This group mainly comprised women, children, and the elderly. Upon arrival in France, these civilians were redirected to more than 1,500 housing centers, which differed from concentration camps in terms of freedom and human treatment. We have been able to know details about their experience thanks to reports by the delegates of the Commission d’Aide aux Enfants Espagnols Refugies en France between March and June 1939.
