Many of the words I used here came from the information at the site, but feel so wrong. Prisoners implies something that doesn’t properly encompass the crimes inflicted on the innocent people tormented here.
Work house was used as part of the nazi propaganda that this was a work camp, not a torture and death camp used for slave labor.
People were forced to stand at attention morning and night, no matter the weather for two hours during roll call. You were not allowed to help the sick and many would fall and succumb to their maltreatment.
The living conditions got worse as the years moved on and the camps got more crowded. Cleanliness was required, prisoners were forced to scrub floors and even a water spot found on a cup would be reason for punishment.
If a prisoner went into the death zone near the fence they would be shot. Some did this to end the torture. Sometimes the guards would take a prisoner’s cap and throw it into this space to force them to retrieve it so they could shot them for fun. If you didn’t have your cap you would be tortured.
People would be brought into the waiting area, there they would be told that they would be going into the showeres. From there they would be put into the disrobing room, their clothes removed for sterilization.
There were no showeres only the gas chamber. The next room was the death room where the bodies were piled, adjacent to the incinerators.
