The "Topography of Terror" of the former women concentration camp of the nazi regime is made readable again. The design works out existing traces and records important elements according to an abstract concept, without any reconstruction. It preserves the authenticity of the site and marked places where memories can be located. The three main areas of the former concentration camp are spatially articulated and differentiated by the use of specific ground material due to their former functions. As perimeter of the camp, the pre-exisiting forest edge is replanted, as mentioned numerous survivors as only visual frame of hope of an outside world.
