Archival History
Please note that while the majority of the material in the files comprises original documentation from the period of this camp's existence as a Nazi persecution site, the compilation of the files was carried out by the ITS from various sources it holds.
System of arrangement
Documents which can be matched to a single individual and which date from the period of their imprisonment were particularly important for the original function of the ITS as a search service and point of contact for the survivors and victims of National Socialist persecution. As a result, these documents were segregated and sorted into envelopes from as early as 1947 onwards. The first name, last name, date of birth and prisoner number are noted on the outside of the envelope. The type and the number of documents the envelopes contain are also specified. If the ITS received an inquiry concerning this person, the T/D case number (T/D stands for „Tracing/Documentation”), would be noted on the envelope. The envelopes were then sorted according to the camp the documents came from and were filed alphabetically-phonetically under the prisoner’s last name.
