After living out their days in Rondout on the CP, the Highliners have finally been moved to Burr Oak Yard, just before they will be scrapped for good.
The Execution Trench (indicated by the red arrow) is in a part of the Sachsenhausen camp supposedly nick-named "Station Z" by the SS, as it was the "final stop." More on Station Z, along with a comparison of how this part of the memorial has changed since 1999 can be seen on the highly authoritative scrapbookpages.
The pamphlet/map I brought in the visitor centre says: "In this trench, resistance fighters, conscientious objectors and people sentenced by the Nazis were executed."
This bell was rung outside the condemned cell at Newgate by the Bellman of St Sepulchre at midnight on the eve of an execution.
They had to make their own entertainment in them days!

Van Nelle Factory, Rotterdam The Netherlands – Architects: Brinkman and Van der Vlugt – masterplan 1914 – 1923; design 1923 – 1925; execution 1925 - 1931
The Van Nelle Factory is one of the highlights of the Modern Movement in the Netherlands. The impressive glass building is not only an example of functionalism and rational production, but also improved working conditions for workers in the twentieth century. The restored building is now one of the most important monuments of Rotterdam
The Firm Van Nelle was selling coffee, tea, tobacco and snuff in Rotterdam since 1782. The entirely new complex consists of the actual factory building, an office building, a warehouse, expedition and storage depots along the canal, a boiler house and several workshops. A cafeteria and sports fields were also to be found in the area. The factory building consists of three elongated in height sloping parts separated by stairwells. Tobacco has eight, coffee five and tea factory three floors. The staircases house the washing and changing facilities, toilets and lifts, separated for men and women. This allowed for continues factory floors and easily adjustable layouts. By using a concrete frame the non-load bearing facades could be made almost entirely of glass with only thin steel frames. Light and air could penetrate deep into the building. The expedition and storage strip along the water is connected to the main building by overhead conveyor bridges. Another sky bridge connects the plant to the office at the entrance of the complex. The office consists of a strip with two layers of offices and a large open space with glass walls and glass meeting rooms. The office follows the curve in the road. During construction, a tea room on the roof of the tobacco factory was added.
In 1942, low-rise warehouses designed by Brinkman and Van den Broek were realized. In 1974 at the back of the building, a new distribution centre was built. In 1951 other products such as pudding and chewing gum made their entrance. After a takeover by the American Standard Brands in 1989, Van Nelle competitor Sara Lee / Douwe Egberts, sold the complex in 1995, so it could finally get the status of national monument. Using the name Van Nelle Design Factory, the complex started a new life. The factory complex was restored by Wessel de Jonge and Claessens Erdmann. The transparency of the factory floor was maintained as much as possible by the new climate walls on the inside. The new inner facades are made of aluminium and therefore clearly identifiable as new elements. On the floors office spaces of various sizes have been realized for the creative sector. The ground floor is used for exhibitions and conferences. The adjacent buildings have been restored and are used by a number of architectural firms.

Many of those incarcerated within the Tower of London over the centuries would be executed, the majority in public spectacles held outside the Tower’s walls, on nearby Tower Hill.
However, as a privilege of rank, two Queens consort and five other nobles were executed in private within the Tower itself: William, Lord Hastings in 1483; Anne Boleyn in 1536; Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury in 1541; Catherine Howard and her lady-in-waiting Jane, Viscountess Rochford, in 1542; Lady Jane Grey in 1554; and Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex in 1601.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, some of the many ghosts reputed to haunt the Tower of London are of individuals who were “untopped” here, on Tower Green.
In 2006 the sculpture of a glass pillow, indented as if an invisible head rests upon it, was placed on the site in commemoration.
For further details, see my Haunted London (The History Press, 2007).
The automated solutions are high in demand today. When you are going to adopt such solutions, it is better to go with warehouse execution software and warehouse robots to drive better efficiency, productivity, and safety in the centers.
