Denmark - Frøslev Prison Camp


In 1943 the German World War II occupation forces in Denmark started deporting a lot of people (jews, communists etc.), but the Danish government managed to get permission to build a camp in Denmark for these prisoners. This was let to the construction of Frøslev Prison Camp on almost on the boarder between Denmark and Germany. Today the camp also houses a Home Guard, UN, Civil Defence and other museums.
