"KZ-Gedenkstätte Flossenbürg" . . "In spring 1946, the former concentration camp grounds were used to house displaced persons. The Polish displaced persons first redesigned the cemetery of honor erected by US army in May 1945 in the village of Flossenbürg. They established an initiative to erect a memorial on the site. In 1947, a memorial chapel and a commemorative landscape near the former crematorium were inaugurated. The chapel and grounds were one of the first concentration camp memorials in Europe. In 1948, the memorial committee succeeded in having the site placed under the protection of the state of Bavaria. The actual camp grounds were not a part of the memorial conception, but became part of the infrastructure for the economic postwar development of the village of Flossenbürg. The former concentration camp quarry has been reactivated – till today. The grounds’ area of the roll call square and its surroundings was used as an industrial estate. In the late 1950s, in big parts of the camp grounds a settlement was erected to house German expellees’ families who had been working there and living in former camp’s buildings for ten years. At the same time a cemetery was erected to honor the victims of the death marches, but the historical circumstances surrounding their violent death were silenced. This state of affairs remained substantially unchanged for several decades. In 1964 the detention barrack, a place of torture and executions, nearly completely was demolished by authorities. Later a small documentation could be seen there. 1995 a Jewish memorial was erected near the chapel. Beginning with the inception of the institution in the end of 1999 Flossenbürg Concentration Camp Memorial has been transformed from a cemetery to a memorial that does justice to its history as one of the central sites of National Socialist persecution in Europe. Permanent exhibits about camp’s history and the aftermath were opened in 2007 and 2010, the redevelopment of the Memorial grounds was finished in 2015 when an education center and a museum café was opened. In 2016 a permanent exhibit on the two places of subcamp Hersbruck/Happurg was opened."@eng . .

The Memorial Foundation Act clearly is stating the main task of the Bavarian Memorial Foundation:\"The purpose of the Foundation is to preserve the monuments as witnesses to the crimes of the National Socialists, as places of remembrance of the suffering of the victims and as places of learning for future generations, to support historical research on this and to contribute that the knowledge of the historical events is kept alive in people's consciousness and carried on\" (GedStG, Art. 2) The Foundation's mission includes not only the original memorial work but the support of the historical-political education, editing its own publications and the cooperation with institutions working with the same objective in Germany and abroad."@eng . _:B4f009709e0b7c4f3a8d2d454d3bc4f21 .
