POWER SPACE VIOLENCE. Planning and Building under National Socialism
Mauthausen concentration camp, Todesstiege (Stairs of Death), around 1942
The “Stairs of Death” connected the Wiener Graben quarry with the concentration camp. Goaded on by the SS guards, the prisoners had to lug the heavy granite blocks up 186 steps. Many prisoners were injured or fell to their deaths in the process. Fewer than half of the 200,000 prisoners in Mauthausen concentration camp would live to see the liberation in May 1945.

Hirschbachtal valley, life-size model of the stands for the “German Stadium” in Nuremberg, 1938/39
In order to check the views from the “German Stadium” and its architectural effect, a life-size wooden model of the spectator stands was built on a slope in the Hirschbachtal valley near Hirschbach-Oberklausen. However, the construction of the stadium never progressed much beyond the laying of the first stone in 1937 and the excavation of the foundation pit.
