German Soldier's House

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

German Soldier's House (German: Deutsches Soldatenhaus, DSH) was a name of a net of hotels for German soldiers and members of other Nazi organizations in occupied Europe during World War II.

Usually organized in hotels confiscated from their rightful owners, they served the role of a hotel for travelling soldiers or those withdrawn from the front. Usually they also included a bar, a restaurant and a brothel. It is said that in most cases, especially in the east, the women were forced to serve as prostitutes after being caught at random on the streets in Łapankas (Nazi German military kidnapping raids against civilians in Poland).
