Gedenkstätte Köpenicker Blutwoche
From June 21 to 26, 1933, units of the Sturmabteilung (SA) and Schutzstaffel (SS) abducted and abused several hundred political dissidents, Jews and women, leaving at least 23 people dead.
The "Köpenick Week of Blood" is representative of the phase in which the National Socialists seized power and used intimidation, torture and murder in a targeted and public manner. The violence did not take place in secret, but in public and before the eyes of fellow citizens.
