* The first concentration camps were set up in 1933, mainly for political opponents of the Nazi regime. These early inmates included some Jews, sent there as opponents, not as Jews. * 11 November 1938 onwards - in the aftermath of the 'Night of the Broken Glass' about 30,000 German and Austrian Jews were sent to concentration camps, and about 2,000 died by Chritmas 1938.
