In 1945, the recreation and meeting place Heideruh was built by the political persecutees of National Socialism, e.g. for children whose parents were persecuted, lived underground, were imprisoned in concentration camps or were murdered. Relatives, survivors and friends invested a lot of time and energy to build and maintain this site. To this day, Heideruh serves primarily as a place of recreation and encounter for people who speak out against fascist ideology and who stand up for peace and a more just society. Like-minded people from several generations often meet here. Currently, the aim is to make Heideruh attractive for younger people. It is important to prepare for the time when there are no more witnesses of fascism.
