Osthofen Concentration Camp Memorial
Highlight • Historical Site
From March 1933 to July 1934 the buildings of the former paper mill were used as an early concentration camp. Auxiliary police officers arrested unpopular persons and political opponents of the Nazi regime without a court order, above all members of the KPD, the SPD and trade unionists, but also members of the center, Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses and Sinti. The prisoners were housed in the one-story hall to the left of the gate. The hygienic conditions and the accommodation in the drafty and wet and cold factory hall were extremely primitive. The Nazi press, which frequently reported on it, cynically described the Osthofen concentration camp as a re-education camp for "overgrown Marxists".
In 1936, the Bühner couple bought the building of the former paper mill for a small price. They moved there with their existing furniture factory to enlarge. The furniture factory Hildebrand & Bühner GmbH produced living room cupboards as standard. From 1942-1945 prisoners of war were also employed there.
In 1976 the company went bankrupt.
In 1986 the Project Association Osthofen was founded, which had the idea of a memorial. In 1991 the building was acquired by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate with the aim of setting up a memorial.
With the opening of a permanent exhibition in 2004, the expansion of the Osthofen concentration camp was completed

Boat Zenit
Highlight • Structure
The Naval Association is facing dissolution after almost 130 years because the members are too old and there are only 30 active members left.
The Naval Association was founded in 1888 by sailors of the Imperial Navy and in the past was made up of "former members of the naval forces, the merchant marine, members of inland shipping and fellow citizens who affirm and cultivate maritime ideas".
