The governor’s house of the ‘Flachsröste’ (building where flax used to be steeped) is the only remaining building of a former concentration camp in Schleswig-Holstein. In a first exhibition a death march from Auschwitz to Holstein in 1945 is documented. This march stands for the fate of hundreds of prisoners from different national socialist concentration camps, who were rushed through the German Reich in the last month of the Second World War.

The Ahrensbök Memorial was opened on 8 May 2001 in the only surviving building in Schleswig-Holstein that housed a former concentration camp in 1933. The beginnings, everyday life, and end of the Nazi dictatorship from 1933 to 1945 are examined using examples from the region. The memorial is a place of documentation, exhibition, reflection, education, and encounters in one.
