On the afternoon of September 16th, 1823 the fortress of Pamplona was conquered after a siege of six months by absolutist spanish troops and the Fifth French body of the Pyrenees, fraction of the "Hundred Thousand Sons of St. Louis". On the morning of 19th, thousands of prisoners of war left the capital of Navarra to forced exile in France which guaranteed life. After several days of hard walk many of them arrived to Périgueux-others to Bourges-, where they stayed until early April 1824. After they obtained a authorization, were escorted, forcing them to return to Spain, in the middle of an imposed peace that would break soon and where some of them return to be active agents of the liberal movement.
