The
Atlit detainee camp
was a detention camp established by the authorities of the British Mandate for Palestine at the end of the 1930s in what is now Israel's northern coast,
20 kilometers (12 mi) south of Haifa.
The camp was established to prevent Jewish refugees from entering Palestine.
Tens of thousands of Jewish immigrants were interned at the camp,
which was surrounded by barbed wire and watchtowers.
The Atlit camp is now a museum of the history of Ha'apala. Atlit was declared a National Heritage Site in 1987.[1]
