    The memorial in the Tiergarten park near the Lüneburg train station commemorates a mass grave of 256 concentration camp prisoners whose transport from a subcamp of the Neuengamme concentration camp in Wilhelmshaven was bombed on April 7, 1945. Up to 80 of the mostly injured and weakened prisoners, who could not be transported further, were shot by their guards on April 11, 1945, and are buried here together with the victims of the bombing.
