The Allach subcamp complex was a labor camp for the BMW company, which produced aircraft parts for the Nazi regime. More than 20,000 prisoners had to live and work under inhumane conditions in the area, which covered around two thirds of the concentration camp roof area.
Prisoners repeatedly died due to hunger, overwork and torture. 15 skeletons were also found in Allach during archaeological excavations in 2016 and 2017. Among finds were porcelain bowls with the BMW logo and beer bottles that could be attributed to the SS. Pieces from the liberators, such as US Army canteens and Coca-Cola bottles, also found.
