The Sebastià Bosom Hall at the Cerdanya Regional Archive was packed last Friday, February 20th, for the opening lecture of the Explica'm una història series. The event, organized by the Cerdanya Regional Council and the Cerdanya Research Group, shed light on a dark post-war episode.

According to Marc Pont, the concentration camp was located on the grounds of what is now Vil·la Antònia, near the lake and next to the town's old prison. The historian detailed the investigation process that identified how this border classification and repression center functioned.

The session also featured the presentation of the book Presoners a Cerdanya el 1939, published by Anem. The work explores the experiences of prisoners and the logistical structure deployed by the Franco regime in the area immediately following the Spanish Civil War.
