Jamlitz (dpa / bb) - After steles were damaged in the Jamlitz-Lieberose concentration camp memorial, the Brandenburg state government, the memorial foundation and the Evangelical regional church were appalled.
"The place of remembrance in Jamlitz is not only a memorial, it is also a place where Jewish blood was shed," said Culture Minister Manja Schüle (SPD) on Thursday.
“The attack is not just an attack on the memory of the National Socialist crimes.
It is a desecration of this special place. "
The Brandenburg Memorials Foundation declared that any form of anti-Semitism must be persecuted relentlessly.
In February 1945, more than 1,300 people were murdered in what was then the Lieberose satellite camp of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp.
The Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia said it was a shame that anti-Semitic graffiti was back on the agenda.
On several steles in the memorial in the Dahme-Spreewald district, graffiti and lettering were affixed.
The police are investigating two men and a woman between the ages of 18 and 20 who are suspected of the crime.

In the Lieberose subcamp, up to 10,000 people had to do forced labor under inhumane conditions, the majority of them Jews from Poland and Hungary.
The satellite camp was established in 1943 and, according to the Ministry of Culture, became the largest camp with Jewish prisoners on the territory of the German Reich in 1944.
In 2003 the Jamlitz-Lieberose Documentation and Memorial Center was established.
