1993/05/16 – Neuengamme (Fluchtburg)

16 May 1993

Representatives of the Rom and Cinti Union e. V. announce that they will occupy the grounds of the Neuengamme concentration camp memorial as a ‘place of refuge’ from the danger of expulsion. A massive police presence prevents the plan; a vigil by Roma on an access road lasts for a two-week period.
