Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Photos, Oranienburg, 1936-1945
Sachsenhausen was an SS concentration camp in Oranienburg, north of Berlin, from 1936 to 1945. Published estimates differ, placing the prisoner population at more than 130,000 or more than 200,000 and the number of deaths at more than 20,000 or in the tens of thousands. More than 33,000 prisoners were forced onto death marches in April 1945. The Red Army, including Polish units, liberated about 3,000 remaining prisoners on April 22, 1945. The photographs show roll calls, forced labor, Kristallnacht arrestees, prisoners wearing pink triangles, the camp gate and a death march near Crivitz. They also include the 1947 Soviet trial of former camp personnel and modern views of the memorial site. Soviet authorities opened NKVD Special Camp No. 7 at Sachsenhausen in August 1945 and renamed it Special Camp No. 1 in 1948. It closed in March 1950 after holding about 60,000 people. At least 12,000 died from malnutrition and disease. |

Re: Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Photos, Oranienburg, 1936-1945
it's nice to see the executed prisoners were well built and hardly emaciated. And the dude's plate looks pretty full to be a full-fledge death camp. Good post! |
