The Fuhlsbüttel correctional facility , colloquially known as Santa Fu , is a correctional facility that was originally located in Hamburg-Fuhlsbüttel , but now in Hamburg-Ohlsdorf after the border has been moved. It is designed as an exclusively male institution responsible for the closed prison and preventive detention . The deportation custody was moved from the JVA Fuhlsbüttel to the JVA Billwerder .
history
Today's House I of the prison was put into operation on August 15, 1879 after several years of construction (1875–79) as the “Central Prison” for 800 prisoners. In 1891, today's house IV was added as an institution for 350 female prisoners and in 1892 today's house III as an institution for 115 young prisoners. In 1906, today's House II was opened as an institution for 726 male prisoners. The takeover of the Nazis halted the project to demolish the Fuhlsbütteler institutions. Instead, in March 1933, the Fuhlsbüttel concentration camp (KoLaFu) was set up in House II , which was soon relocated to House IV, handed over to the SS in September 1933 and cleared at the end of the war in April 1945. In addition, a satellite camp of the Neuengamme concentration camp was set up in another part of the building from October 25, 1944 to February 15, 1945 .
From 1945 the JVA Suhrenkamp served as a prison, the JVA Am Hasenberge (until 1975) as a penitentiary ; the Nesselstrasse asylum was dedicated to juvenile prisons. In 1979 the youth penitentiary in House IV (= Institution V) was closed. In 1983 a work yard was set up. In 1991 House IV (= Institution V) was re-occupied after renovation. In June 2003, the previously independent sub-institutions Suhrenkamp, Am Hasenberge and Nesselstraße were merged under the then Justice Senator Roger Kusch as the Fuhlsbüttel JVA under one director. In 2010, Houses II (1906) and IV (1905) of the Fuhlsbüttel JVA were made independent institutions again. The Hamburg Social Therapy Institute and its Bergedorf branch emerged from House IV. House II remained under the name JVA Fuhlsbüttel . House I is empty.
Surname
The term "Santa Fu" always meant the JVA Fuhlsbüttel, formerly JVA Am Hasenberge, and was spread by the press in the 1970s after several successful escapes, which were made the subject of headlines like "Santa Fu and you're out!" were. The term "Santa Fu" was created before the 1970s and comes from the old name "Prison Fuhlsbüttel", which in administrative German "St. Fu ”was abbreviated. The "Fuhlsbüttel Prison" as a whole was merged into three independent institutions in the 1970s.
memorial
The gatehouse of the Fuhlsbüttel prison at the Suhrenkamp entrance is set up as a memorial, a memorial plaque bears the inscription:
- Fuhlsbüttel concentration camp - from the end of March 1933 until the end of the war in 1945, many political opponents of the Nazi regime were taken into captivity through this gate. The former Fuhlsbüttel concentration camp, then called "Kolafu", was housed in a building in this prison. It was under the control of the SS and later became a Gestapo prison. The prisoners were held without a court order, many ill-treated and tortured, some driven to suicide or murdered.
Central Hospital
The JVA has a prison hospital with 63 beds and provides medical care for the inmates. It offers a range of services comparable to a public hospital .
Production of goods
Goods are also produced under the Santa Fu brand, some of the proceeds going to the victim protection organization Weißer Ring . This initiative was honored in 2006 by Federal President Köhler as part of the “ Germany - Land of Ideas ” initiative. The Santa Fu brand is a PPP ( Public Private Partnership ) project between the Hamburg judicial authority and an amalgamation of three profit-oriented companies from the areas of product development, graphic design, advertising, marketing and sales.
Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel
The Fuhlsbüttel JVA has its own sports club, Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel, which competes in a number of sports in regular league operations.
Soccer
Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel is a full member of the HFV and has been playing in Hamburg's lowest division since the 1976/77 season (then district league, today district class). Since the inmates are not allowed to leave the site, Eintracht only plays home games and is therefore not eligible for promotion.
Until the end of the 2007/08 season, the pairings of Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel were canceled for this reason both for the Fuhlsbüttler and for their opponents after the last game day and the table placements were determined in a so-called "adjusted table". This created the constellation that relay opponents did not appear for the games, as the games against Fuhlsbüttel at the end of the season were taken out of the rating anyway. Since 2008/09, Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel's games have generally been rated; However, they are still denied the right to promotion due to their permanent home advantage.
In Hamburg football, the Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel players are often called the “heavy boys” because of their criminal background, although the team is known for playing very fairly. The inmates of the prison also make Eintracht jerseys that are sold in the “Santa Fu Shop”.
Table tennis
In addition, Eintracht Fuhlsbüttel has a table tennis team that currently plays in the men's 2nd district league. Here, too, only home games are played, but the team can advance here.
Stones for the city
As part of the project Stones for the City, Carved in Santa Fu , members of the prison's stonemason group carved sculptures in stone from September 1, 1984 to August 31, 1986, which were set up in various places in the city, such as the Senator at the Hagendeel subway station in Hamburg-Lokstedt and the Bhagwan-Stein next to Kieler Strasse 399 at the passage to Melanchtonstrasse in Hamburg-Stellingen . Both sculptures are by Ludwig Udorovic. In 1986 the book was published for the project: Hammer, Chisel, Fantasy. Stones for a city carved in Santa Fu. September 19, 1984 - August 31, 1986 .
