Outstanding questions

• USHMM Encyclopedia, CCP and Verzeichnis der Haftstätten mention the address Döbelnerstraße 54 in Dresden, while Flossenbürg Concentration Camp Memorial's photos and GPS coordinates point to Hellerhofstraße (https://www.gedenkstaette-flossenbuerg.de/en/history/satellite-camps/pottenstein-1-3-2-2). A map from around 1911 (https://altesdresden.de/index.htm?get_haus=doeb054) shows these GPS coordinates to be around the Sächsisches Krüppelheim, that address is called Weinbergstraße 54 (current day Hellerhofstrasse) on this old map.

Probably the seat of the Bauleitung der Waffen-SS und Polizei was at Döbelnerstraße 54, the Kaserne was at Hellerhofstrasse and other external work details also existed (Neuhirschstein and Seifhennersdorf). Would be good to have a clear description of this, some more research is welcome.
