The Drütte Concentration Camp Memorial.

On October 18, 1942, the first transport carrying 50 prisoners arrived at the newly established Drütte satellite concentration camp. Underneath an elevated road used for industrial purposes, living quarters, an infirmary, and administrative offices were built. The prisoners were put to work in the nearby armaments factory. Traces of the former concentration camp can still be found today.

During a one-hour guided tour, visitors learn about the history of the concentration camp and the people who were imprisoned there. Afterward, visitors can explore the exhibition on their own.

Guided tour: Staff of the memorial site
The number of participants is limited.
