In September 1940 the English prisoners were transferred to a German camp in the Polish town of Toszek.

The first Jews captured during the razzia (pogrom) of 22 and 23 February 1941 in Amsterdam (Jonas Daniël Meijerplein [nl]) were transferred to the camp in an army truck.

Some of the prisoners were released, but most were transferred to Kamp Amersfoort, and 25 women were transported directly to Ravensbrück concentration camp.

After the war the camp was used to imprison members of the National Socialist Movement in the Netherlands (NSB) and was finally demolished in 1950.

SS-Untersturmführer Karl Peter Berg was camp commander from June 1941 until its closure in October 1941.
