Nothing was exactly manufactured at the Buna slave labor facility. I assume you think they were manufacturing something there because you read something that mentions the forced laborers building something? They were building more buildings so the Buna concentration camp could hold more prisoners. Buna had more prisoners arriving then they could kill. That is why they were building more buildings; to hold more prisoners.
many people got prisoners from Auschwitz, the Buna works probably got the most.
Wiesel works at the Buna factory as a laborer because he is a prisoner at the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II. Prisoners were assigned to work in various labor camps, such as Buna, as part of the Nazis' system of forced labor.
