Best Answer

Jews were a primary target, although that was a combination of ethnicity and religion. Jehovah's Witnesses were the only group that was targeted purely based on religion, largely because they refused to support the German war effort. They were also interred in UK and USA for the same reason.

Many other groups were sent to concentration camps as well for other reasons: homosexuals, political dissidents, Russians, Poles, Gypsies/Romany and anyone else who dared to oppose the regime.

These would have been wide mix including Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant, Atheist and more.
