Braunschweig (SS Riding School)

Very little is known about the satellite camp for women in Braunschweig. According to reports from survivors, around 800 women – mostly Jews from Hungary – were taken to the camp shortly before Christmas 1944. They were housed in the stables which had held the horses of the SS-Führerschule ("SS Officers' School"). The women had come from the women's camp at Bergen-Belsen, to which they had probably been "evacuated" from Auschwitz-Birkenau in the autumn of 1944. In the final months of the war, they were used to clear rubble in Braunschweig. In late January 1945, 50 sick women were transported out of the camp, and the SS divided up the remaining prisoners probably in mid-February 1945. A smaller group consisting of very sick and weak women was transported to the Salzgitter-Watenstedt/Leinde satellite camp for women, while the larger group was taken to the Helmstedt-Beendorf camp.

Though the camp at the SS Riding School existed for only about 10 weeks, the death rate was comparatively high for a women's satellite camp of Neuengamme. Between 24 January and 24 February 1945, 17 women known by name died.

The name of the commander of the Braunschweig (SS Riding School) satellite camp for women is not known.
