Debate on the special camps

The Soviet special camps in the press

In 1990, the German public in both East and West responded with dismay to press accounts regarding the former Soviet special camps. However, reference to these camps was by no means absent from post-war press accounts.

The special camps in film

The special camps in film

After 1990, the large number of media accounts grappling with the history of the special camps formed a large and heterogeneous visual exploration of the history and political implications of this highly sensitive issue.

The Forgotten Women of Buchenwald

The exploitation of female inmates in the armament industry

On the basis of individual biographies, this travelling exhibition documents the performance of forced labour by female concentration camp inmates in war production.
