Vincent Reynouard was arrested in Anstruther, in Fife, in November 2022 and handed over to French authorities last year after he lost a legal battle against his extradition.
The 56-year-old was wanted for inciting hatred and denying the occurrence of the Holocaust.
On Wednesday, he was jailed on condition of partial release at the Paris Criminal Centre and also ordered to pay damages of €10,000 - more than £8,300.
It's been quite the storm for this man for decades.MARCH 23, 2025 21:10Updated: MARCH 23, 2025 21:34
A French Holocaust denier and neo-Nazi was sentenced to twelve months in prison by the Paris Criminal Court on Wednesday.
Vincent Reynouard was found guilty of denying war crimes, denying crimes against humanity, and inciting racial hatred, Le Monde reported, facing trial for comments made on online videos between 2017 and 2020.
His first criminal charges resulted from brochures he had sent anonymously to 24 high school students who had won a history-writing contest called “Resistance and Deportation.” The brochure contested the existence of homicidal gas chambers in German-controlled areas during World War II. On 8 October 1992, the Caen Court of Appeals sentenced him for this to a suspended prison term of one month and a fine of 5,000 francs for denying one or more crimes against humanity
That is from an interview Faurisson did with a Spanish magazine. The citation is Interviu, Feb 22-28, 1979. I have a scan of it. It actually predates the Faurisson affair.Wetzelrad wrote: ↑Sun Sep 28, 2025 4:02 am Perhaps his sentence is on appeal, or else he's posting from prison.
The photo of the magazine at 42:38 is pretty remarkable. Faurisson pointing at the Crema II blueprint. I'm saving it for later, since it's happened before that people bring that blueprint to me, touting it as proof for the Holocaust Narrative.

Letter on my discovery of the Auschwitz crematoria building plans
to Lady Michèle Renouf
Dear Michèle,
Yes, I am the one who discovered the plans of the Auschwitz crematoria. It was in 1976 on my second visit to the camp; my first visit was in 1975.
I haven’t the time to explain to you how I managed to find, on March 19, 1976, all those plans and many other items at the Auschwitz archives centre, where I met Tadeusz Iwaszko, chief archivist at the Auschwitz State Museum.
For years I tried to publish the plans in question. Impossible. One day a friend told me he knew a Spanish journalist who perhaps would agree to publish an interview with me, along with some photos. The newspaper was the Spanish magazine Interviú. The journalist was Vicente Ortuno and the photographer was Jean-Marie Pulm. They came to Vichy. They promised me and my friend not to publish any photo of my face, and that an agreement would be signed before any publication. In fact they lied. They quickly published what you can see in Interviú (February 22-28, 1979, p. 64-66; please see the reproductions below). In the article I am described as a sadistic Nazi. I have the French translation of that article but it is of no interest. I filed a lawsuit in Paris. I won my case but the amount of damages was ridiculous (the presiding judge was a Jewess by the name of Simone Rozès).
So it was that the Holo Believers had been sitting on those plans for over 30 years after the war. Question: “How is it that the Jews and the Communists decided to hide the plans showing the alleged crime weapon?” The answer is that those plans showed clearly that the alleged homicidal gas chambers were rooms designed and used as mortuaries (or places to keep bodies before their incineration), exactly as, for example, in the Sachsenhausen camp near Berlin (there, the big Leichenkeller was made up of three different rooms: one for bodies in coffins, one for bodies not in coffins and another, equipped with a special isolation system, for contaminated bodies). This kind of place was called a Leichenhalle (“corpse hall”) or Leichenkeller (“corpse cellar”).
Isn’t it odd that the man who had discovered and tried to publish such things was a revisionist, i.e. a non-believer?
In the large photo in Interviú I am seen showing Leichenkeller 1 of crematorium II in Auschwitz-Birkenau; that crematorium was situated near the football field (Sportplatz) where the inmates played soccer matches; sometimes the ball fell into the courtyard of the crematorium and had to be retrieved from there.
In the same photo, behind me can be seen two other plans.
On March 19, 1976 I ordered and paid for 116 photos (I still have the bill) but afterwards I had some serious trouble getting them sent from Poland to Vichy. I had to ask the French Consulate in Cracow to intervene. Of course, to none of those people in Communist Poland had I disclosed that I was a revisionist.
In the smaller photo I am showing Serge Klarsfeld’s book, Mémorial de la déportation des juifs de France (1978), and explaining some of the tricks played by that fraudster in his book.
As soon as they learnt of the Interviú article, the Holo Believers began publishing the same drawings but not without explaining to readers that they had to understand that the German terms were code words which, consequently, needed decoding. Jean-Claude Pressac harboured a predilection for that sort of job, particularly in his enormous book entitled Auschwitz: Technique and Operation of the gas chambers, published in 1989 by the Beate Klarsfeld foundation in New York. But, as you probably know, Pressac ended up recanting his views and, on June 15, 1995 (a month after I had made him testify in a case brought against me [for my Réponse à Jean-Claude Pressac (1994)], signed a paper in which he finally said that the official version of Nazi concentration camp history was “rotten” (pourri) and good only for the “rubbish bins of history” (poubelles de l’histoire). That recantation of his was kept hidden for five years and made public only in March 2000 by a conventional historian, Valérie Igounet, at the very end of her book, Histoire du négationnisme en France, Seuil (Paris), p. 651-652.
Best wishes,
Robert Faurisson

A look back at my discovery, on March 19, 1976, of the building plans for the Auschwitz and Birkenau crematoria
On March 19, 1976 I discovered the building plans for the Auschwitz crematoria in the Auschwitz State Museum archives. Plans that had been kept carefully hidden since 1945. And for good reason: they refuted the case for “the Holocaust”!
Two of these drawings confirmed that the Auschwitz camp itself had, at the start (until August 1943), possessed a Krematorium, a building with two main rooms: first, a mortuary called a Leichenhalle or “corpse hall”, then, a room housing cremation ovens as well as a reserve of coke and funerary urns. Afterwards (from January 1944), the interior of the room containing the ovens, coke and urns was dismantled, the whole building being transformed into a Luftschutzbunker für SS Revier mit einem Operationsraum, or concrete air-raid shelter for an SS infirmary with operating room.
Still other drawings showed that in 1943 a total of four crematoria had been built at Auschwitz-Birkenau; the first two, Krematorium II and Krematorium III, were equipped with Leichenkeller or “corpse cellars” and, at ground level, a room with cremation ovens; the other two crematoria, Krematorium IV and Krematorium V, also contained spaces for the keeping of corpses, either for cremation or other purposes. For photographs of those crematoria and those plans, one may refer to the extracts below from Serge Thion’s book Vérité historique ou vérité politique ? Le dossier de l’affaire Faurisson. La question des chambres à gaz (p. 317, 320), Éditions la Vieille Taupe, Paris 1980 (available for purchase from Éditions Akribeia, 45/3, Route de Vourles, 69230 St Genis-Laval, France; €28).
All of these building plans made nonsense of the claims that the structures in question had housed vast chemical slaughterhouses for human beings.
At bottom, it was at Auschwitz itself that I had the fortune of finding important proof of the “Auschwitz lie”. And, as Auschwitz happens to be the capital of “the Holocaust”, it follows that, by uncovering “the Auschwitz lie”, I uncovered at the same stroke “the lie of ‘the Holocaust’”.
On July 13, 2009 I sent Lady Michèle Renouf a letter in English in which I recalled that discovery and its consequences, of which a French translation is available here.

Vincent Reynouard is currently out of jail, but "under judicial supervision" (sous contrôle judiciaire), which means that he's not allowed to leave French territory and must check in once a week at the local police station. The French judges couldn't imprison him immediately and so hold him "in pre-trial detention" (en détention préventive) because his penal conviction is smaller than one year of imprisonment. Mr. Reynouard now delivers lectures in various French cities on a weekly basis and still makes numerous revisionist & political videos, pending his coming imprisonment. He explained this in an interview with the French Nationalist newspaper Rivarol in February 2024.
