EXKURSION: Treffpunkt Mülheim – NS-Zwangsarbeit in einem Kölner Industrieviertel
In the organizer's words:
Learn more about the history of this industrial district on this tour of Cologne-Mülheim: Where today you can find diverse urban hustle and bustle with concerts, modern service providers and a wide range of offers, companies such as Felten & Guilleaume and the Carlswerk with its wire and cable production characterized the cityscape back then.
As part of the Nazi armaments industry, the companies profited from the exploitation of forced laborers. During the tour through Mülheim, you will encounter the working and living conditions of the people deported mainly from the former Soviet Union in the form of quotes and memories from eyewitness accounts at various stations such as the Berliner Straße bunker, locations of former accommodation barracks or the Schlackenbergwerft shipyard on the banks of the Rhine.
The tour starts at the corner of Keupstraße and Schanzenstraße and lasts around two hours. It ends at Ratsstraße, close to the KVB stops Keupstraße or Wiener Platz.
