Biographical / Historical
This charcoal drawing by René Sousquet, done in 1946, recalls the dormitories located in four unfinished halls of the Tunnel, where the prisoners constructed the underground factory between September 1943 and May 1944. They worked in two twelve-hour shifts. The hygiene conditions at the site were deplorable.
