Nice find! You have two different organisms in the first photo. The Millipede (in both photos) will be difficult to identify since there are many similar looking species. Here is a link that might help:

The other organism is a Woodlouse (Armadillidium vulgare). They have other common names as well like Pill Bug and Roly Poly.
