Shortly thereafter, management fell to the Nazi collaborationist Vichy French regime. Recebedou operated from February 1941 to October of 1942, when the Wehrmacht used the camp for military housing. During that period 349 Jews were deported to Drancy Camp. Of the 314 persons who died in Recebedou Internment Camp, 254 of them were Jews.
In 2003, Elie Wiesel inaugurated the opening of a Memorial Museum located on site of one of the camp's barracks.
