concentration camp memorial
The biggest war crime in Lower Bavaria took place in the district of Fürstenstein, more precisely in the district ofNamering. In April 1945, a concentration camp transport from Buchenwald stood for days in what was then the railway station in Namering. Around 5,000 prisoners were crammed into it. They spent agonizing days full of fear between life and death. They were brutally tortured and shot by SS men. Many starved horribly. Namering became the last station for 794 of them. Today there is a memorial and a memorial stone on the spot. In addition, a "track of remembrance" warns that these days of horror are not forgotten.
