Detail InformationEdit

Itter Castle is a small castle standing on a high knoll in Itter, a village in North Tyrol (Austria), 20 km west of Kitzbühel.
The castle was used from 1943–45, during the Nazi occupation of France, to incarcerate prominent French prisoners. Inmates included the former Prime Ministers Édouard Daladier and Paul Reynaud; Generals Maurice Gamelin and Maxime Weygand, who had been prominent during the “Phoney war” era; Jean Borotra, a former tennis champion as later General Commissioner of Sports in the Vichy regime; Colonel de La Rocque, the leader of the right-wing Croix de Feu movement; André François-Poncet, a politician and diplomat; and Michel Clemenceau, politician and son of Georges Clemenceau. The fomer republic president Albert Lebrun was held at Itter for three months in 1943, before being sent back to France for health reasons; Marie-Agnès de Gaulle, Resistance member and sister of General Charles de Gaulle, was interned in the castle almost at the end of the war, in April 1945.
Administratively, Itter was a subcamp of Dachau concentration camp; the castle’s detention conditions were, however, not comparable with those at Dachau.
