Stammheim 77/12
Stammheim - is the law enforcement institution, the supreme courtroom and the last home of the RAF gang of 4. The time spent visiting with us was still in common with the 7th floor, where Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin, Jan-Carl Raspe and Ulrike Meinhof were inaugurated. Former Prison Officer at Justizvollzugsanstalt Stuttgart-Stammheim, Renate Frede, accompanies us through the environment, premises, the special section and the events that surrounded the four RAF prisoners during their last days.
Baader-Meinhof Gang
The Baader-Meinhof gang, a left-wing terrorist collective born of the student revolutions of the Sixties, terrorized West Germany with a series of bombings, assassinations and hijackings in the Seventies. They became die RAF - die rote army fraktion in 1970. It is claimed that property destruction during the Watts riots in the United States in 1965 influenced the practical and ideological approach of the RAF founders. As for changing the world, they failed. All they achieved was to make West Germany a less tolerant, more paranoid society than it had been before.
