Forced laborers in the Ravensbrueck women's camp
A photograph of women inmates who were forcibly working in the Ravensbrueck Death Camp.
The Ravensbrueck camp (about 100 km north of Berlin) is considered to be the largest concentration camp for women in Germany. At its peak, the camp, along with its foreign camps, housed about 46,100 inmates. The Jewish inmates in the camp were forced to wear a yellow badge. As part of the general trend of enslaving the inmates of the camps to the war economy and to the arms industry in particular, Siemens production established facilities in the camp starting in June 1942, in which the inmates of the camp were enslaved. Living conditions in the camp were unbearable. Thousands of inmates were shot to death, strangled, gassed to death, buried alive or were forced to death. Ravensbrueck is known as one of the camps where German doctors performed cruel experiments on humans starting in August 1942. The camp claimed the lives of some 40,000 victims.
