Brutte-Fankel. On the photo the current location. There is nothing left. 

In the Second World War, great parts of Cochem's old town were destroyed. Also during the war, the operations staff of the underground subcamp of Zeisig of the Natzweiler concentration camp between the villages of Bruttig and Treis was located here. At its height, 13,000 people were imprisoned. They provided slave labour for Bosch, which made spark plugs, ignition systems and glow plugs, which were important to the German war effort, under brutal conditions.

Voor Nederlanders: vlak bij deze locatie staat het Nederlandse Gasthaus zum Moselhut (www.zummoselhut.nl)  Adres: am Moselufer 24). Een gezellige, kleinschalig hotel
