Auschwitz-Birkenau was a Death Camp, which meant that the vast majority of Jews who were sent there were immediately "liquidated", which means that they were sent systematically to the gas chambers. However, there was a minority that was taken to other barracks and forced into slave labor at the camp, which included maintenance of the gas-chambers and crematoria in addition to various types of industrial labor.
