Hoykenkamp

Hoykenkamp is a small village in Lower Saxony, Germany, north west of Delmenhorst.

Hoykenkamp is part of the municipality of Ganderkesee and belongs to the district of Oldenburg.

Hoykenkamp's main claim to fame is to be the place where, starting in 1937, German helicopters were constructed and built by Focke Achgelis.

In 1944 the management of Weser Flugzeugbau GmbH transferred from Berlin to Hoykenkamp, taking over offices from Focke Achgelis.

As part of the Focke Achgelis and Weser Flugzeugbau GmbH wartime activities, a number of specialists but also forced laborers were relocated to Hoykenkamp and barracks were placed on the local sports grounds.
