The Wedel-Holst Camp Was Apparently Built On The Site Of A Former Nazi Concentration Camp Which Wa Closed In 1944. After The War Schleswig-Holstein Became Part Of The British Occupation Zone. Over A Million Wehrmacht Soldiers Were Interned In Two "Restricted Areas" Within The State. It Was Not Until April 1946 That These Soldiers Were Released - 410000 From The Dithmarschen-Eiderstedt Zone And 570000 From The Plön Zone. Even Then Over 200000 Former So-Called "Foreign Workers" And Forced Labourers Remained In The Camps And A Further 365000 Refugees And Displaced Persons Took Refuge In Them By The End Of 1946. In The First "All-German" Census In October 1946 Schleswig-Holstein Recorded A Population Of 2.6 Million Excluding Displaced Persons. This Was An Increase Of Approximately One Million From 1939. Excluding The War Deaths This Meant That The State Was Home To Approximately Three Refugees For Every Four Locals. This Was Much Higher Than Other States Such As Lower Saxony One Refugee To Two Locals And Bavaria One Refugee To Three Locals.
