Neue Bremm was a Nazi torture camp designed to break prisoners who were not destined for extermination. Most prisoners were held for only a few weeks but in this time they were broken and sent on to concentration camps such as Buchenwald. Short term torture camps like Neue Bremm were called Straflager. The torture is reported to include hopping crouched for 6 to 8 hours a day, they were starved and deprived of sleep. These Straflager held the same pains as the other Nazi concentration camps but all focused into a few days.[1]
