Concentration camp graves are located in the municipal cemetery (Wackersdorfer Straße 7, 92421 Schwandorf). On April 17, 1945, concentration camp prisoners died during an air raid on Schwandorf. At the same time, a train carrying concentration camp prisoners from Flossenbürg to Dachau had broken down in Schwandorf. Several prisoners had already died in the wagons. Guards shot more prisoners when panic broke out during the attack. A total of 52 former concentration camp prisoners are buried in Schwandorf. The dead are buried in two collective graves.
