      From June 1942 to the late summer of 1943, the Jewish men, women and children imprisoned here were taken to the Theresienstadt ghetto and from there to the extermination camps.

        The wall, which is welded from eight wide flange beams made of Corten steel and made transparent by seven window-like recesses, is part of a path of remembrance of the Cologne-Müngersdorf deportation camp. In 1941, National Socialist Cologne set up a camp for the city's Jewish population in and near the former Fort V of the Prussian fortifications. From here, thousands of people were deported to extermination camps.
