Death and Extermination Camps were Self Purposed Camps which were mainly intended to kill a lot of people, Camps like Treblinka, Sobibor and Belzec were Camps which had a sole purpose of kill as much people as possible but also the most efficient. These camps had a average Death Rate f at least 15,000 People a month.

Auschwitz was the exception; it operated as both a death camp and a concentration camp. Also with its sub-camps was the largest supplier of labour in the camp system.

What death camp had the fewest deaths during 1940-1945?

It is difficult to give a meaningful answer as the camps varied considerably in size and the toll at some extermination camps is not known. There were some small extermination camps that very few people have heard of in western Europe and the US - partly because they had no known survivors. An example is Maly Trotinets, near Minsk, Belarus. The death toll there is estimated at about 50,000. Another difficutly is that the extermination camps were in operation for differing periods of time. Please bear in mind that there is an important difference between extermination camps ('death camps' and ordinary concentration camps). Please see the related questions.
