The Bunker (camp prison) is located on the right,
behind the service building
The bunker was the place where "special prisoners,"
such as Dr. Johannes Neuhäusler and the Rev. Martin Niemöller
had private prison cells. They were free to walk around outside
the building during the day. Other prisoners were confined in
these cells as punishment. An east wing with cells for the Nazi
SS guards, who had violated the strict rules governing their
behavior, has been torn down. Prisoners who were condemned to
death were hanged on a gallows in the courtyard between the bunker
and the service building. The bunker exhibit opened on January
27, 2000.
