Forced-labor camp network connected with wartime production
During the Second World War, Deutsche Werft operated or was connected with multiple labor camps in and around its Hamburg facilities. The camps included sites on the company premises and additional camps in Finkenwerder, the port area, Hamburg, and at the affiliated Reiherstiegwerft. Their existence reflects the use of forced labor in the shipyard’s wartime industrial operations.
