Apache2 – protect only directory but not subdirectory

I’m trying to host a webserver with Apache2 on Debian 12.
I want to limit access to webserver/dir1 with a password promt. This already works.
My issue is, that webserver/dir1/subdir1 has to be available to multiple people.
Therefore I want them to access this site without any password while webserver/dir1 is still protected.

Sadly the password protection works for webserver/dir1 and webserver/dir1/subdir1. But I want everyone to access webserver/dir1/subdir1 without a password.
