Today I learned that the SS firing range and shooting club in St. Georgen an der Gusen (Upper Austria), built by prisoners of the Gusen concentration camp and opened in 1942 with Ernst Kaltenbrunner present, is still a firing range today.
It was used as a training facility for SS guard troops of Mauthausen and Gusen, then in 1945 ownership passed to the republic of Austria, but in the 1950s the shooting club won back the land in court. -
