Visit Auschwitz Concentration Camps and you will never forget this place. Nazis in the Third Reich and the occupied territories built around 12,000 concentration camps. In total, over 18 million people passed through it, and 11 million were murdered in places like Auschwitz. The aim was total annihilation of Jews, Slavic, Gypsies. Nazi doctrine claimed that Aryan race was the one to dominate and was better than others. What is more, they wanted to remove people from  the lands they occupied to give it to the Germans.

Visit Auschwitz to have a living history lesson.

Therefore, in 1941, the Nazis began using gas chambers to kill people, and the bodies were buried in lime pits, burned on stacks or in crematoria. Every day in gas chambers were killed  thousands of people.  On others were conducted terrible medical experiences. They were infected with malaria, typhus or tuberculosis.

The largest extermination camp was Birkenau, a sub-camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp. Other camps were: Treblinka, Sobibor, Belzec, Kulmhof, and to a lesser extent Majdanek. The Holocaust program was also implemented in ghettos and ordinary concentration camps.
