Built sometime after 1942 as part of the Soviet POW Camp in Stalag XI C/311.
In Jul 1943 until November 1944 this block was part of the Sternlager (Star Camp)
In November 1944, with the increasing number of prisoners evactuated to Bergen-Belsen from concentration camps near the front line the Häftlingslager I (Prison Camp), could no longer accommodate all the male prisoners. The Häftlingslager II was established to accomodate them. Can you help? Please contact me with any information you may have. |
