Editing Strabag (section)

===Holocaust profiteering===

Strabag was one of the main profiteers of the Nazi building projects during [[World War II|Second World War]] and before. It was a main contractor of [[Todt organisation]] and built concentration camps, the [[Westwall]] and Norway's [[Blood Road]].<ref>Gogl, Simon, Laying the foundations of occupation, 2020, p. 238f.</ref> The British Secret Service report concluded "[. . .] Enough large building firms offered their services to put the entire construction [of the Westwall, S.G.] on a voluntary basis. [. . .] Nor is there any basis later for assuming that firms in any large numbers became so reluctant to work for the OT as to make mass conscriptions of such concerns necessary. This willingness is due to the attractive profits obtainable from OT contracts."<ref>Handbook of the Organisation Todt, 1945, p. 53</ref>
