Nazi Germany unveiled the concept of the concentration camp in 1934. Heinrich Himmler said that they would be used for "concentrating enemies of the Reich." And that's what they did - kept all the enemies of Hitler's 3rd Reich in one place where the Nazis could keep an eye on them.

Before long, systematic extermination of these "enemies" took place. After a worker (probably a Jewish one) had outlived his usefulness, he would be offered a "shower" by the guards. They would take him to a large chamber with a group of other prisoners, who were also expecting a shower. They would strip off their clothes and enter the chamber, where the doors would be locked and the lights would be turned off. A guard on the roof would then pour Zyklon-B - an industrial rat poison that becomes deadly when exposed to air - into precut openings in the ceiling. The gas would enter the chamber, and everyone inside would be dead within 20 minutes.

They would do hard labor and most of the time die of that or get in gas chambers and die or just have to line and get needlessly shot

The Jews were told that they were going to be 'resettled'. They often took clothing, blankets, cooking utensils and valuables with them.

It varied, but what ever they took with them was forcibly taken from them once they arrived.

Jews got sent to do dangerous jobs such as making supplies for war. These camps were more commonly referred to as "Labor Camps."
