Gedenkstätte Plattenhaus Poppenbüttel

The Plattenhaus Poppenbüttel memorial stands as the final remaining prefabricated building from a wartime housing settlement near Hamburg railway station.

Between September 1944 and April 1945, Jewish women from the Neuengamme concentration camp subcamp in Sasel constructed emergency housing for Hamburg residents affected by bombings.

The memorial exhibition presents detailed biographies of women imprisoned in external camps, documenting their experiences during the National Socialist period in Hamburg.

Located at Kritenbarg 8 in Hamburg, the memorial welcomes visitors every Thursday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with access via S1, S11 trains and multiple bus lines.

The building contains an original makeshift home from 1944, displaying authentic living conditions of families who needed emergency accommodation during World War II.
