Reasons for the extermination camps
Hitler decided that he had to get rid of Jews as a race.
This was known as genocide and was the ‘final solution’.
Large extermination camps where built, six million Jews were killed in what was known as
the holocaust.
By 1939 Hitler has successfully removed all basic rights from Jews.
He convinced Germans that Jews were a threat and a danger to the German way of life.
The ‘final solution’ was to exterminate the Jews in concentration camps.
Dachau was the first concentration camp to be built in 1933
From 1933-1945 about 15000 camps were built in Germany
There were different prisoners: prisoners of war, political prisoners, Jews and Nazis that
were disobedient
Thousands died from diseases, starvation, exhaustion, and medical experiments
At first bodies were put into mass graves, this provided to be too slow and too much work.
Large crematoriums were built to burn bodies.
