Museum Concentratiekamp Mittelbau-Dora

The museum is located on the very large camp site and is free to enter. The exhibition shows the complex network of relationships between the camps and their social environment, thus contributing to a critical examination of the perpetrator problem and the responsibility of accomplices and bystanders. This also includes the question of the motives that led those responsible in construction and armaments companies, but also small craftsmen, to declare concentration camp prisoners as forced labourers.
outside. The responsibility of technicians, engineers and managers who had concentration camp prisoners assemble V2 rockets in the Mittelwerk is also questioned in the exhibition. The exhibition thus stimulates the discussion about the ethics of science and technology.

For current visiting hours, please contact the museum.
