There were two separate camps at Theresienstadt. One was a Gestapo prison for actual and suspected members of the Czech resistance, the other was a concentration camp (and transit camp) for Jews. It was intended as a model concentration camp that could be shown off to the Red Cross, and it had many of the features of a ghetto, such a nominal self-government; some cultural activities were also allowed. However, about 33,000 inmates were killed and about 85,000 were sent to Auschwitz, where they were gassed.
