It was named after the natural region Senne, mainly a heath landscape, where the camp was located, near to the town of Schloß Holte-Stukenbrock, in today North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
[2] The camp was overrun by the rapidly-advancing 2nd Armored Division on 2 April 1945, with troops of the U.S. 117th Infantry Regiment, 30th Division, subsequently taking control.
In the mid-1960s a monument was erected to commemorate the approximately 65,000 men interred there.
[5] A police training institute has occupied the camp administration blocks since 1970, and there is a permanent exhibition of articles, photographs and documents pertaining to the camp in the "Documentation Centre" there.
