From September 25, 1944, until December 11, 1944, a concentration camp was established near Glasau.[2] It was a subcamp to the Neuengamme concentration camp.

Culture

Schwesing is one of the few places where the old, German card game of Bruus is still played. Tournaments are held regularly in the winter months and, in 2019, the 1st Bruus International Open took place.[3]
