The Luftwaffe prisoner of war camp was located here during the Nazi era: Stalag Luft 1. It was divided into several sub-camps. Today, at the various corners of the camp, there are small granite pillars with QR codes through which you can learn different stories from the camp.
This is where the main memorial is today, with a large boulder and information board. All texts are available in German and English.
