Many German Jews were sent to Auschwitz. Others were slaughtered in Belarus and the killing fields of Latvia.

The German occupiers set-up labour, concentration and death camps in occupied Poland. The Nazi created the death camps of Auschwitz II (Auschwitz-Birkenau), Chełmno, Bełżec, Majdanek, Sobibór and Treblinka. The Nazi German also created many concentration camps such as Auschwitz I.

there was a total of three Auschwitz camps that were significant in World War II. Each Auschwitz had a different purpose. Auschwitz I was created to incarcerate prisoners at forced labor.
