Makronisos

Historical Website

The creation of the Makronissos camps is linked to the "cleansing" of the army of "suspicious" soldiers and officers, in order to protect the rank and file of the National Army which was fighting at that time against the Democratic Army of Greece. Based on information gathered by the army from the local police authorities, those who had left-wing ideas or had participated in the German Resistance were considered "suspicious" and gathered from the summer of 1946 in special battalions.
