Neuaubing

Western suburb of Munich that developed south of the village of Aubing around the Centralwerkstätte Aubing, later the Reichsbahnausbesserungswerk (RAW), built there in 1906. Neuaubing was incorporated into Munich in 1942. During the Nazi era, the district developed into a center of armaments production and forced labor with its two large factories, Dornier Werke and the Reichsbahnausbesserungswerk. A total of about 7,000 foreign forced laborers were employed in the communities of Aubing, Neuaubing and Langwied during World War II, about 2,000 at the Dornier factories in the production of fuselages for fighter planes. There were over a dozen larger collective accommodations and camps where the forced laborers were housed, including “Camp Sommer” on today’s Hoheneck/Hohensteinstraße and the RAW camp on today’s Ehrenbürgstraße.
