List of subcamps of Sachsenhausen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sachsenhausen, brickworks

The following is a list of subcamps of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp established by Nazi Germany. The main camp, with around 50 barracks for slave-labour prisoners, was located 35 kilometres (22 mi) from Berlin, and operated between 1938 and April 22, 1945. During World War II the prisoners included Germans, Poles, Soviet POWs, Roma, and later Jews. It is estimated that the number of victims of Sachsenhausen was 30,000–35,000.[1] Dozens of subcamps of Sachsenhausen existed directly in the capital city, serving individual business operators and factories.[2]

There are indications that the concentration camp in Pustków, located within the SS-Truppenübungsplatz Heidelager military complex in southeast Poland, was another subsidiary of Sachsenhausen. The Pustków camp reportedly followed the Sachsenhausen blueprint, it was guarded until 1942 by the SS-Totenkopf batallion "Oranienburg" sent directly from Sachsenhausen (commanded by SS Hauptsturmführer Otto von und zu der Tann and SS Hauptsturmführer Bormann[3]), and it was to Sachsenhausen that the survivors from Pustków were evacuated in July 1944. However, researchers at the Sachsenhausen Memorial and Museum have not been able to confirm the relationship between the two camps.[4]
