In the Thekenberge near Halberstadt, the National Socialists had a 13 km long tunnel system driven into the rock between April 1944 and April 1945. More than 7,000 prisoners from 22 countries and stateless persons had to do forced labor in the specially constructed satellite camp of the Buchenwald concentration camp, codenamed "Malachit", for the planned underground armaments production. Around three quarters of them were "annihilated by work" or killed during the evacuation of the camp in April 1945.

unfortunately not much is received yet worth a visit. very well-kept memorial and despite the fact that not much is preserved you get an impression of formerly. The memorial is not only the small piece but the counter mountains are still part of the memorial.
