The concentration camp memorial near Schupf is a memorial that commemorates events that occurred during the rule of the Nazi regime. It is located near the town of Schupf and points to the site of a cremation site where the cremation of victims of the Hersbruck concentration camp subcamp took place in the final months of the Second World War. The memorial consists of a large, stone urn that contains the remaining ashes of what are believed to be over 1,000 prisoners' bodies burned at this location.

Every year around November 9th, a small memorial ceremony takes place at the site of the memorial to commemorate the victims of the National Socialist tyranny.
