When the prisoners arrived, they were regularly sworn at, threatened, and beaten. As "new arrivals", they were subjected to a brutal and degrading admittance procedure. After their personal data were registered by the political division and they were given a "Lecture" from a protective custody camp leader, the prisoners were brought into this room, the Schubraum. There they had to hand over their clothing and everything else that they had taken with them. They left the room naked and were taken to the prisoner baths. No prisoner could know if he would ever leve the concentration camp again. -museum plaque
