The shooting range set up by concentration camp prisoners in 1941 was used by the concentration camp guards for target practice, but people were also executed here in 42 and 43. The buried shooting range was only uncovered again in 1988 and today serves as a place of remembrance for the crimes of the Gestapo and the SS.
