1) Work camps, where inmates were payed meager salaries for back breaking work. 2) Standard concentration camps where Jews were worked to death. 3) Death camps where the sole purpose was to destroy as many Jews as possible as quickly as possible.
They got sent to concentration camps, work camps, or death factories.
Death camps had the facilities to commit mass murder, they also had limited barracks as they did not house many inmates (Auschwitz was the exception as it was both).
it depends where from and when. From some places everyone went to the death camps, from others volunteers were called for, and others those unable to work went.
Ghetto was a Jewish town so life was normal The conditions in a death camp: work or die (but some times they killed them straight away)
Some death camps existed to enslave the prisoners and literally work them to death in mines, quarries, factories, etc. Others, especially later in the war, existed solely to enact Hitler's "final solution" to the Jewish " problem", genocide of the Jews. Six million Jews died in the death camps along with thousands of Poles, homosexuals, mentally retarded etc. The program is today known as the Holocaust.
Jews, criminals, homosexuals, gypsies, little people, the mentally ill and many others were imprisoned and killed in concentration camps. Only a few able-bodied people were kept at death camps, so as to do all of the work required at a death camp. Everyone else taken to a death camp was killed.
false on both counts. Though this is what happened in concentration camps.
the Nazi took the Jews to the camps. If the Jews where to old or young to work they would kill them by burning or shooting just because Hitler didn't like Jews. the Jews who work were work to death or hang.
