DP Camp in the former SS Barracks in Freimann

After the end of World War II, Polish DPs were accommodated in the military quarters in Freimann originally built as barracks for the SS. From spring 1948 onward, the barracks site served as a DP transit and resettlement center — with a high percentage of Jewish DPs waiting to emigrate. After the closure of the transit camp, the U.S. Army took over the military housing in 1950 and re-named it Warner Barracks.
