    The preserved foundations are the remains of the camp's sanitary barracks. There were four such barracks in the concentration camp subcamp. The district of North Friesland had the foundation remains of two of the sanitary barracks uncovered.

    The sanitary barracks were not sufficient for the more than a thousand concentration camp prisoners at the same time. The contamination of the latrines and washing facilities meant that many suffered from diarrhea and other illnesses. Added to this were a lack of clothing, overcrowded accommodation and poor food.
