Acquisition

The original files originate from the "Seccio 2a" of the Archivo General Militar de Guadalajara in Spain. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Archives received the collection via the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum International Archives Project in Aug. 2005.

Scope and Content

The collection contains lists of prisoners in the Miranda de Ebro Camp; 1940-1947 Miranda was the central camp in Spain for foreign prisoners. This camp was used for several kinds of prisoners. The three main categories were: international brigadiers (captured during the Civil War); male prisoners who illegally crossed the border (women were not held in military camps, but provincial prisons); and German military personnel and German collaborators interned in the so-called Campo Aleman. Some of the inmates were Jews. The photocopied lists include the name plus nationality of inmates. The electronic spreadsheet list is more comprehensive and comprises 15,412 names (last name, middle name if available, first name), but no nationalities are given.
