Gedenkstätte für NS-Opfer in Neustadt

Gedenkstätte für NS-Opfer in Neustadt, Memorial site near Hornbach Quarter, Neustadt an der Weinstraße, Germany

The memorial in Neustadt occupies a former detention building from the Turenne Barracks and displays restored cells along with exhibits about regional persecution. The building has been arranged to help visitors see what the space looked like and how those held here experienced it.

The prison building belonged to the Turenne Barracks, whose grounds now form the commercial quarter Le Quartier Hornbach. Private papers first pointed to the camp in 1995, and after years of research the support association was founded on 4 November 2009. It restored the dilapidated detention building true to the original and opened it as a memorial on 10 March 2013, the 80th anniversary of the camp's opening, with Justice Minister Jochen Hartloff standing in for Minister President Malu Dreyer.

The memorial is run by a support association founded on 4 November 2009, which renovated the dilapidated prison building true to the original and opened it on 10 March 2013, the 80th anniversary of the camp's commissioning. It serves schools and pupils as a history workshop under the motto "remember – commemorate – learn", and guided tours can be arranged.

The memorial occupies the former prison building of the Turenne Barracks at Le Quartier Hornbach 13 a, southeast of the old town; from motorway A65 take exit 13 (Neustadt-Süd) and follow the B39 towards the centre. The one-storey building with its restored cells is not large, and guided tours can be arranged with the supporting association, which also runs it as a history workshop for school classes.

The building belongs to Hornbach Holding, which provided it free of charge to the support association for at least 25 years. The company also paid over 20,000 euros to renew windows and doors according to heritage guidelines, while the state of Rhineland-Palatinate and the city of Neustadt added 75,000 euros in grants.
