    The actual monument of the place is a big stone block. 4 meters high, 2 meters wide and completely made of granite. The monument was inaugurated in 1983. The granite block was divided into 7 parts before its actual processing, a significant number in Judaism, and then reassembled, which one also looks at the stone. The stone as a whole should remind of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.

      The central collection point for Jewish deportees in Hamburg lay on the Moorweidenstraße, not far from the then heavily Jewish embossed Grindelviertel. Stone sculpture by Ulrich Rückriem from 1983, composed of seven individual stones. "If you look closely, you can see the individual stones and a T-shape in the sculpture, such as the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem or the Hebrew letter" tav "(" T ") for" suffering "and" death "."

        The NSDAP also used the site early for major events and marches.
        After the start of the Second World War in 1939, one of the first Zombeck round bunkers in the city was built on the moor pasture near the Dammtor train station.
        From 1941, the western park and the surrounding areas were the assembly point for deportations of Jews for extermination (Holocaust).
        In memory of the victims of the Nazi regime, the former north-western tip of the moor pasture in front of the lodge house is now called the Square of the Jewish Deportees.
