Description
Regarding the Monument:
In April 2006, a memorial to the victims of the Hohenbruch concentration camp in today's Kaliningrad Oblast was erected in the forest near the Curonian Lagoon between the villages of Polessk and Slavsk. The text on the memorial plaque was written by the Polish memorial institution Council for the Preservation of the Memory of Struggle and Martyrdom. (from https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/KZ_Hohenbruch)
Some information here: http://jewsineastprussia.de/de/hohenbruchs-secrets/ , including mentions of working outside of the camp. No idea whether it will be possible to find this info.
