After the wars end the Flossenbuerg camp was used
temporarily to lodge prisoners of war, the UNRRA and refugees. Then in 1946, through the
initiative of several local leaders, work was begun on a chapel and a graveyard at the
site. The "Valley of Death" with its graves was laid out in the 1950s. Today
some of the grounds of the former concentration camp are used as a housing project. The
quarry is now run by a private concern. |
