Memorial at the memorial site in St. Pantaleon, in memory of the victims of the Nazi prison camp in Weyer

After Austria was annexed to the National Socialist German Reich on March 13, 1938, the place belonged to the Gau Oberdonau . During the Nazi era , the National Socialists set up the St. Pantaleon-Weyer labor education and gypsy detention camp on what was then the municipality in Weyer (today part of the municipality of Haigermoos ) , which initially operated as a labor education camp until January 1941 and then until the end of 1941 was continued as a gypsy detention camp.

In 2000 , the Weyer / Innviertel camp was created on the Moosach , a small tributary of the Salzach , and a memorial was erected there. The prisoners of the former National Socialist prison camp in Weyer were used as slave labor to regulate the Moosach. A bridge that leads over the Moosach in the immediate vicinity of the first camp and connects St. Pantaleon with the Salzburg municipality of St. Georgen was declared a bridge of remembrance by the mayor of Sankt Pantaleon and the mayor of the neighboring municipality in 2009 .
