Cemetery

The concentration camp cemetery is located at the edge of the forest 1 km left of the road from Mauerstetten to Steinholz. A massive stone wall surrounds the cemetery, the metal gate bears two Stars of David. A wide, paved path leads to the memorial on the side opposite the entrance gate. The memorial bears the inscription: "Brother's grave of 472 Jewish prisoner victims of the Nazi labor camp in Riederloh near Kaufbeuren". To the right of the memorial, a commemorative plaque is embedded in the wall.

The concentration camp cemetery is located at the end of St. Ottilien just before the railroad track next to the monastery cemetery. The cemetery holds victims from the entire camp complex Landsberg / Kaufering, who were brought to the Jewish hospital established in the monastery after the liberation of the camps.

The cemetery and memorial site is located in the forest on the banks of the Lech River in a nature reserve (Edenthalstraße).The cemetery was established in connection with victims from Camp VIII of the Landsberg/Kaufering subcamp complex. There were 22 dead buried here during the existence of the camp. Presumably, the first temporary memorial was erected in 1946 by survivors of Camp VIII on a square ground plan with a wooden picket fence, an entrance door and a wooden stele with a Star of David and inscription - naming 21 dead.

The Jewish cemetery is located east of Schweinshaupten at the edge of the forest on a small hill. He has a size of almost 2000 square meters and was created in 1869. About 110 gravestones are still preserved.

The concentration camp memorial is located from the Schwarzenfeld municipal cemetery (Amberger Straße, 92521 Schwarzenfeld). The memorial stone is located to the right of the main entrance.

In the local cemetery next to the church lie in seven row graves on the left side of the cemetery the remains of Polish and Ukrainian war dead (forced laborers) and those of at least seven Jewish concentration camp victims of Polish nationality (one woman, six men), who were murdered in April 1945 on the death marches from Buchenwald concentration camp and Helmbrechts concentration camp and buried here.On November 9, 2004, Schwarzenbach inaugurated the "Langer Gang" concentration camp memorial in Bahnhofstraße, which commemorates the death march of women from Helmbrechts concentration camp.

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.

The concentration camp cemetery is located south of the village on the railroad embankment in the direction of Landsberg a. Lech. The path is partially signposted.The cemetery was established over three mass graves with victims from Camp IV of the Landsberg/Kaufering subcamp complex. During the evacuation of the camp, the train transport with the prisoners was attacked by Allied low-flying planes on April 27, 1945. Prisoners fleeing under fire were murdered by the guards, some managed to escape, others succumbed to their injuries soon after.

The memorial site is located on the left side of the road from Hersbruck to Kainsbach in the forest, marked by an information stone about 2 km before the village. Here were burned in 1944/45 between 3000 and 4000 dead of the barracks camp Hersbruck. A low stone wall without a gate surrounds the memorial in the shape of an urn, around the center of which the following inscription can be read: "Was Haß blind zerstreut, Treue piously vereint - Errichtet 1950". Another inscription is on the pedestal: "To the victims of the Hersbruck concentration camp, cremated on this spot in 1944-45".

In Schornweisach there was a Jewish community from the middle of the 17th century until the 1880s. The cemetery established in 1712 was located in the village north of the church. He had to be abandoned between 1750 and 1850 at the instigation of the Christian authorities again; at funerals it had even come to physical confrontations. The exact location can no longer be determined today, traces are missing.
