What did the Nazis do with the Jews' bodies when they died?

Answer 1

The Nazi's, in order to dispose of dead bodies in concentration camps often buried them in massive grave pits, incinerated them in purpose built crematoria, or used parts of them for medical experiments or to help the war effort, human hair was used for rope for the Kriegsmarine. At the end of the war though when the Allies were closing in and the SS were only interested in saving their own skin, they had too many bodies to deal with, when the British army liberated Bergen-Belsen, they found 10,000 unburied bodies.

Answer 2

They gassed the old people, women, and children 15 and below. After they were gassed with poison they were just carlessley thrown into the creamatory.

-------------------------

Cremation happened in two methods; the main one was in the crematoria, the ovens were no bigger than crematoria where bodies are cremated today, but as they did not use coffins, they could fit up to three (depending on size) bodies at a time. During peak periods they had to use outdoor cremation pits to cope with the volume.

Answer 3

They dumped them in a big waste land. They also got some of the ALIVE Jews to SHAVE the skin of the dead Jews. But what made it worse was. The guards would kill a man's wife and child, and then make him shave their bodies. they were so shocked , if one didn't do it , they got shot.

Answer 4

The Nazis burned the bodies to prevent the smell of the decaying bodies and possibility of disease. They also wanted to obscure what they were doing to the rest of the world and even their own people.
