This staircase is a remnant of the labor camp that was built in 1939 for the construction of the Führer's headquarters in Adlerhorst. In the Wikipedia article about the FHQ Adlerhorst you can find a picture of the same staircase with more information about the context.

Several thousand employees of the companies Hochtief and Philipp Holzmann AG as well as the Neue Baugesellschaft Wayss & Freytag AG were involved in the construction of the FHQ-Adlerhorst. They were housed in camps, one of which was located on the northern edge of the Kirchwald, west of the bridge over the Usa, opposite Ziegenberg Castle. Traces of this camp can still be found on the site today.
