Never should we forget about the millions of innocent human beings who have been slaughtered during the holocaust. Never should we forget about this terrible period of our history, never should we forget that those millions of victims only wanted to live in peace.
The permanent documentary exhibition “Murder and Mass Murder in the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp 1936-1945” is part of the central memorial site “Station Z”. This is how the SS described a building erected in early 1942 that was both a crematorium and an extermination site. “Z”, the last letter of the alphabet, cynically stood for the last station in a prisoner’s life. In “Station Z” there were four crematorium ovens, a gas chamber and a firing area.
