In the Munich district of Neuaubing, 8 barracks of a former Nazi forced labourers' camp are still preserved. During the Second World War, up to 1,000 forced labourers from various countries were housed here, who were deployed at the nearby Reichsbahn repair works. It was one of a total of 30,000 mass accommodations in the German Reich. More than 13 million people were abducted and exploited from all over Europe by the Nazi regime.
After 1945, a variety of subsequent uses partly overwrote the traces of the past. The history of the site in Neuaubing also fell into oblivion. Today the barracks are used, among other things, by artists, craftspeople and a kindergarten. Over the coming years, the site will be renovated in a manner true to its heritage and further developed into a place of remembrance. In two barracks, a branch of the NS-Dokumentationszentrum München will be set up.
