In the final phase of the Second World War, it is estimated that up to several hundred thousand people were systematically murdered. Many of them because they were witnesses to the crimes of the Nazi regime or because they could become actors in a new democratic beginning. These final phase crimes included the murder of 13 women and 58 men between April 21 and 24, 1945 in the detention bunker of Neuengamme concentration camp. These 71 people were mainly political prisoners, members of various resistance groups and forced laborers who had become politically conspicuous and had previously been imprisoned in the KoLaFu. We want to remember them.
