At first (until July 1934) the Nazi concentration camps were run by the SA (Stormtroopers, 'Brownshirts'), but from mid 1934 they were run by the SS. Later the SS was also in charge of the 'Final Solution' and ran the extermination camps in Poland.

The concentration camps were run by the SS-Totenkopfverbände (SS Death's Head units).
