Summary

This plaque was erected by the Communist GDR government, to commemorate the Death March undertaken by the prisoners of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp under the Nazi government. The GDR placed an emphasis on political prisoners over the other groups held at Sachsenhausen (Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, Homosexuals), hence the pictured prisoners are wearing red triangles (the symbol for political prisoners, particularly communists).
