Hamburg: Commemoration

On May 16, 1940, police officers arrested approximately 1,000 Sinti and Roma in Hamburg and Northern Germany. At the memorial site at Hanoverian Station in Lohsepark in HafenCity, Roma and Sinti will commemorate the fact that their ancestors were deported to concentration camps by the National Socialists 86 years ago on Saturday. A wreath will be laid around 2 p.m. With this annual day of remembrance, they also want to remember the survivors who still have to live with the consequences of this injustice.
