Copyright Holder: Archives départementales de la Gironde This collection contains selected records from the Departmental Archives of the Gironde assembled for use in the trial of the former Secretary General of the department of the Gironde, Maurice Papon, for complicity in crimes against humanity. This is a new collection created after the judicial authorities no longer needed the documents and returned them to the Archives, although in some cases, the photocopies were returned, because the originals were retained.
