The Struthof concentration camp
Opened in 1941, Struthof was the only camp of its kind on French soil. Some 52,000 prisoners including German detainees and deportees from 20 other countries were subjected to forced labour here in the quarry close to the camp. In total, 22,000 people died here, usually from starvation and exhaustion. Some however perished in the "experimental" gas chamber, making it all the more important to ensure that what happened here is never forgotten.
A memorial site
The camp has retained its buildings surrounded by barbed wire and watchtowers. The prison, the gallows and the gas chamber stand as poignant reminders of the horror that once reigned here. The camp museum which is housed in one of the huts enables the public to discover how the camp was organised, aided by videos and eyewitness accounts. The site is overlooked by the 41 m high Deportation Memorial, and inaugurated by General DeGaulle in 1960. The National Necropolis located alongside the camp contains the remains of 1120 French deportees who died in the Nazi camps.
The European Centre for Deported Resistance Fighters
A site designed with the aim of promoting information, reflection and awareness, the European Centre for Deported Resistance fighters was opened in 2005. It helps visitors to discover the concentration camp system and the history of European resistance against the Nazis. The centre includes several areas for permanent or temporary exhibitions. Conferences and meetings are also organised here, to ensure that we never forget the horrors of Nazism.
