When were Jews putted into Concentration Camps?

Answer 1

Some Jews were sent to concentration camps in 1933, and a further batch was sent to camps from 1938 onwards. The wholesale transportation of Jews to death camps started in 1941. However, many had been forced to lead a wretched existence in ghettoes since 1939/40.

Answer 2

Key dates

1. March-May, 1933. Some Jews in Germany were sent to concentration camps as 'opponents of the regime' or for working in the media, not simply for being Jewish. (The Nazis had a particular dislike of Jews in the media).
2. November 1938. About 30,000 Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. Within seven weeks, 2,000 of them were dead.
3. December 1939-February 1940. 'Experimental deportations' to a 'Jewish Reservation' near Lublin, Poland (not a concentration camp). This was very poorly thought out, caused conflict with the local population and had to be stopped. (Unbeknown to the SS, a Swiss journalist saw the deportations from Stettin and reported on the them - including 80-year-olds being forcibly removed from old people's homes. This was then also reported in Britain, France, the US and other countries).
4. October 1940. About 6,300 Jews deportated from Germany - from Baden and parts of the Rhineland to Gurs in France. At the time, this was a 'one-off' action.
5. October 1941. Routine deportations to killing fields, mainly in Latvia and Belarus begin. This is followed, from March 1942, by regular, routine deportations to extermination camps and concentration camps.

Answer 3

Jews were putted into Concentration Camps since 1933, when Adolf Hitler come to power.

___________________________

But Jews were not put into camps because they were Jewish at this stage. The camps were the party equivalent to prison and the first targets were political opponents and criminals, so that peace would come to the land and people would feel safe. Though some Jews may have been arrested, it was for different reasons. Also at this time a large proportion of prisoners were released after re-education.

It is not until well into the war that you see significant numbers.

Answer 4

The really large numbers of Jews were sent to extermination camps from December 1941 onwards. Before that some Jews had been sent to concentration camps, but usually as socialists or liberals, not simply for being Jews. In Nazi-occupied Poland most Jews were forced into ghettos in 1939-41.

Answer 5

The first Jews to be taken to concentration camps for merely being Jewish were on the 10th November 1938, after Kristalnacht. This however was isolated to this time and they were not held on a permanent basis (though some did not survive).

The policy of segregation and ghettoisation preceded the time that Jews were sent to the camps. in 1940 when Jews were being used for labour that they were first sent to camps. These camps were labour camps, most concentration camps were labour camps, intended to house the prisoners and work them to death, rather than the death camps, where most of the ghetto residents would eventually be sent. These deportations happened mainly in 1941, but did continue until 1943

Deportation from Germany was rather late, Hitler had wanted to only deport German Jews after the war had ended, but Allied bombing and housing shortages forced German Jews to be deported from 1941. Most went to Ghettos, but some went straight to the camps.
