A Concentration camp was used to torture or force their prisoners to work. An extermination camp was where they were all systematically murdered in mass quantities, and in horrific ways. (An extermination camp was also known as a death camp.)

I hope this helps you.

In my view extermination camps aka 'Death' camps are a type of concentration camp. So, there are 3 types of concentration camps:

  • Death Camps aka Extermination Camps-->where hundreds of thousands of people are slaughtered
  • Forced Labour Camps-->where millions are forced into hard labour
  • Re-education Camps-->where the prisoners are brainwashed, psychological tortured.
