  • The Freight Wagon Memorial stands in front of the Winterhude district school in Hamburg-Winterhude. It depicts a group of figures by the artists POM and Cristine Schell as well as a covered freight wagon. It is intended to commemorate the deportation of two teachers who taught at the Hamburg school Meerweinstraße - representatives of the victims of National Socialism. The installation was created through the initiative of a school project group from this school. The standard designed covered freight wagons were intended by the Deutsche Reichsbahn for the transport of livestock and general cargo and are therefore sometimes referred to as "cattle wagons". They were mainly used in the East for the "transport of Jews" and thus became the "central symbol for the Nazi deportations." However, the wagon on display is a wagon of the type Gms39 built in Czechoslovakia starting in 1948 for the Deutsche Bundesbahn. In the deportation of German Jews, mostly old "third class" passenger wagons were used. The reports from Paul Salitter, who was in charge of the escort command of such a deportation train at the end of 1941, have been preserved. (en)
