The Flossenbürg Concentration Camp was a Nazi slave labor camp in which around 30,000 inmates died from malnutrition, overwork, or executions (out of 89,964-100,000 prisoners in all), located in east central Germany on the border with Czechoslovakia. Its laborers were used to extract stone from a quarry.

Prominent prisoners and executions[edit]

It held a number of prominent prisoners, especially after the 20th of July 1944 assassination attempt against Hitler. Admiral Wilhelm Canaris and Major-General Hans Oster, of the Abwehr, and Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, all three accused in the Plot, were all executed there late in the war, after torture.
