In the "NS-Musterdorf" Fraxern, prisoners of war and forced laborers had to build streets, paths, transport cable cars, houses and stables under the harshest conditions between 1941 and 1945. They were accommodated immediately above the village center in a camp intended for 200 men, which served as a prisoner of war camp. The teacher Albert Summer, who was born in Fraxern, has extensively researched this topic and jointly initiated the memorial plaque, erected in 2021 along the "Kugelweg," together with the community of Fraxern.
