The rather large plot is located on the federal road 12 Pocking-Simbach about 4 km southwest of Pocking.Steps and a ramp in the middle lead down to a large rectangle surrounded by a high stone wall. There are several benches at the memorial. The inscription in the center of the monument reads: "To the victims of National Socialist tyranny 1933-1945", the one on either side: "The 95 concentration camp prisoners formerly buried here now rest in the Flossenbürg Concentration Camp Cemetery of Honor". On each of the monument's two sides are three blank stone plaques.A Jewish religious community (UNRRA community) existed in Waldstadt from about 1945 to 1947; it was composed primarily of liberated victims of the Mauthausen concentration camp who were waiting here to emigrate to Israel or another country.
