What tortures were at auschwits?

Answer 1

Although the Nazi's were famous for their use of gas chambers in the concentration camps, this was more of a method of execution rather than torture. In order to torture people (mostly for information) the Nazi's had various technical, some of their own invention, for torturing prisoners. They were very fond of 'dental work'; this could involve a variety of things such as teeth pulling, twisting and removing gold fillings without aesthetic (which were then melted down and used, along with other possessions, and made into so called 'Nazi Gold'). Nail pulling was also popular and burning with matches and cigarettes. Nazi doctors in the camps also experimented with electroshock therapy and new highly dangerous surgical techniques. Brutal beating was also common using a verity of instruments.

There were many more techniques used in the camps (e.g scalping ect) but the ones listed above were the most common.
