Background
The Lieberose forced labor camp was a Nazi forced labor camp situated near the village of Lieberose in Brandenburg, Germany. It was a subcamp of Sachsenhausen concentration camp, erected in the autumn of 1943 on the pretext of using slave labourers to construct a training ground for the Waffen-SS known as the 'Kurmark.' This was considered by the NS-Regime as extremely important since the reverses at the front signified a new ideological grit and determination to defend the bastion of the Fatherland. The SS-training ground, together with a barrack complex known as "Ullersdorf," were among several enforced labour projects. The workforce was incarcerated in a camp just outside the village of Lieberose, which lies around 40 km from Cottbus. The initial prisoners of the camp were of a mixed European background, some of whom were Jews, and were categorized according to a red triangular symbol stitched over the left breast into their clothing.
