Hertha BSC's Stadiums and Forced-Labor Camps

New Research: Project Presentation and Discussion

Little is known about the connection between soccer fields and forced labor in Berlin. Research findings from a project group of Hertha BSC fans offer new insights.

During World War II, soccer games regularly drew thousands of people to Berlin’s stadiums, providing a distraction from the daily realities of war. At the same time, the Nazis converted the capital’s stadiums and sports fields into camps to house forced laborers. What did soccer fans see as they flocked to Hertha BSC’s popular stadium at Gesundbrunnen on game days?

Opening Remarks:
Daniela Geppert (Documentation Center for Nazi Forced Labor), Stefano Bazzano & Jacqueline Krug (Hertha BSC Fan Representatives), Ralf Busch (Fan Project of Sportjugend Berlin), Representative of Hertha BSC

Presentations:
Hertha BSC’s Stadiums and Their Role in Nazi Forced Labor
Hertha Fans Involved in the Project

Panel Discussion:
On the History of Nazi Forced Labor in Berlin Soccer
Juliane Röleke (historian), Dr. Veronika Springmann (Director of the Berlin Sports Museum), project participant, Daniela Geppert (moderator)Translated with DeepL
