    Unfortunately, only minimal remains of the warehouse have been preserved and are not at all easy to discover. But a reason to grapple with our recent history again.
    Be sure to visit the Pfaffenwald forest cemetery!

    A place of remembrance, now overgrown with grass.

    The camp initially served to house workers on the Asbachtal Bridge of the Reichsautobahn (RAB) - A4. Later, it housed French prisoners of war.

    edit2025: The path is rather difficult to navigate by bicycle, as it has been churned up by wild boars.
