Zossen: Guide

Zossen is a Germany|German city in the district of Teltow-Fläming in Brandenburg, south of Berlin, and next to the B96 highway. Zossen consists of several smaller municipalities, which were grouped together in 2003 to form the city. Zossen, like most places in Brandenburg, was originally a Slavic peoples|Slavic settlement.

History

Between 1901 and 1904, Zossen adopted the use of different high-speed vehicles, such as electric locomotives and trams, for transportation to and from Berlin-Marienfeld. These vehicles were powered by an alternating current of 15kV and used a variable frequency. The power was channelled through three overhead lines.

It had been the site of a military camp in World War I, and Islam|Muslim prisoners who had fought on the side of the United Kingdom|British were interned there as POW's, in the so-called "Half Moon Camp". These prisoners usually came from North Africa|North and West Africa and India. A wooden mosque was erected specially for the captured Muslims, who it was hoped that the favorable treatment the Germans provided along with propaganda would cause the Muslim POW's to consider changing sides. France|French and Russian prisoners, on the other hand, were accommodated in the so-called "Weinbergelager".

From 1939 to 1945, the underground headquarters of the German Wehrmacht (OKW) and Army's High Command (OKH) was in the Zossen, (Waldstadt section of the Wünsdorf community)
.

There is a large area in Zossen (Waldstadt section of Wünsdorf community) which, from 1945 to 1994, was the site of a Soviet Union|Soviet military camp, and since then has been returned to civilian use.
