The order in which they became operational as extermination camps is as follows:
- Chlemno (This was hardly a camp in the conventional sense, but rather it was a killing centre, based on a disused manor house. The victims were taken to the manor house, loaded on to specially constructed vans, with the exhaust fumes diverted into the interior of the van, driven into a nearby forest, where the corpses were tipped into mass graves). In the forest there was a small camp for the men who had to dig the graves.
- Belzec (not to be confused with Belsen).
- Treblinka II.
- Sobibor.
- Auschwitz II (Birkenau - part only). The camp was older but was originally an extremely harsh concentration camp. It became a killing centre later. (For a long time the vast killing capacity of Auschwitz was not used to the full by the Nazis).
- Majdanek. This was used as a backup killing centre.
