Cath spotted something in the Times about 10 fascinating French museums that are nowhere near Paris – and one of them is right on our doorstep.
It is called Camp des Milles and is a former brickworks that became an internment camp that first housed German-speakers, then republicans Spanish and then Jews.
Two thousand people were transported from here to Auschwitz.
It was a real history lesson and you could see pictures and messages on the walls drawn by the detainees.
There was also a reminder of the need to stand up to things that you see that are wrong.
All in all, it was very moving and inspiring.
We even got a reduced price entry for senior citizens – which I was more happier about than Cath.
