Concentration camps were places where the Nazis imprisoned and killed millions of Jews, Gypsies, and others during World War II. The camps held people in cramped and unsanitary conditions, where many died of disease, starvation, overwork, or were victims of medical experiments. The largest camp was Auschwitz, where over 1 million people were killed through gas chambers, medical experiments, starvation, or exhaustion from slave labor. Other major camps included Buchenwald, Dachau, Sachsenhausen, Treblinka, and Theresienstadt, where prisoners suffered and died from harsh conditions, executions, lack of food and medical care.

Concentration Camps
This is a presentation on Non Jewish Victims of the Holocaust. In addition to the Approximately 6 million Jews that were murdered, there were other groups that were Holocaust victims, including 3.3 million Soviet POW's; about 300,000 Gypsies or Roma; 2 million non Jewish Poles; 250,000 mentally and physically disabled; 15,000 homosexuals; 5,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses, and an untold number of Roman Catholics. (The Nazi authorities in the concentration camps usually did not record the religious affiliation of a prisoner, with the exception of the Jehovah Witnesses; therefore, it is difficult to reliably estimate the total number of Catholic victims who were persecuted or killed because of some action or position connected to their Catholic faith).
