Valkyrie — Germany
The execution site -- where eight conspirators including Field Marshal von Witzleben were hanged on meat hooks with piano wire on August 8, 1944, filmed on Goebbels orders. Stauffenberg and three others had been shot in the Bendlerblock courtyard hours after the failed bomb.
Plotzensee Prison in Berlin Charlottenburg was used for the execution of resistance members throughout the Nazi period. Following the July 20 plot, nearly 200 people connected to the conspiracy were executed there. A memorial at the site commemorates over 2,500 people executed at Plotzensee between 1933 and 1945.
