H1 BERLIN-MARZAHN (D)

While spectators from all over the world were gathering in Berlin for the 1936 Olympic Games, the Sinti and Roma living in the German capital were forced to move to Marzahn “Gypsy” Camp. They were only allowed to leave the camp to go to work. In 1939 many were taken to Sachsenhausen concentration camp as slave labour. The remaining Sinti and Roma were deported to Auschwitz in 1943, where most of them were killed.
