From August to November 1944, a subcamp of the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp in Alsace operated in Walldorf. The SS transferred 1,700 imprisoned girls and women from Auschwitz and forced them to work on the Züblin construction site at Frankfurt Airport. The forced laborers were forced to construct a concrete runway, performing extremely physically demanding work. Many of the women became ill, suffered from hunger, and died of exhaustion. In addition, they suffered brutal treatment at the hands of the guards. In November 1944, the camp was dissolved, and the women were transferred to the Ravensbrück concentration camp. Of the 1,700 Hungarian Jewish women, only about 330 survived the war. Since 1980, a memorial stone near the site of the former concentration camp subcamp has commemorated the fate of the victims. The inscription reads: "In memory of the victims of the former branch of the Natzweiler concentration camp -- Aug.-Dec. 1944 -- The dead serve as a warning -- Never again fascism -- Never again war" http://www.kz-walldorf.de/index.html https://www.bpb.de/themen/holocaust/erinnerungsorte/503218/lehrpfad-konzentrationslager-walldorf/
