ORANIENBURG / SACHSENHAUSEN WWII GERMAN CONCENTRATION CAMP HOLOCAUST DOCUMENTARY FILM 66034
Made in the immediate aftermath of WWII, this German language film focuses on the atrocities committed at the Oranienburg concentration camp and the prisoner of war camp that replaced it, Sachsenhausen. The facility was preserved post-war as a museum and memorial.
The film begins with images of the camp grounds, barracks, guard towers, barbed wire fences and stockades. At 3:10 a sign proclaims Prisoner of War Camp. At 3:45 footage shot after the liberation of the camp shows a barracks crowded with female prisoners. At 4:00, photographs of emaciated prisoners reveal the full horror of the camp's conditions. At 4:26 stacks of bodies are shown in a yard. At 4:43, torture techniques are demonstrated and at 5:25 a noose hangs in a yard. Dozens of notches attest to its use. At 6:00 the concentration camp's hospital is seen, where various inhumane experiments were undertaken on prisoners. At 6:46 a re-enacment of one of these experiments is shown, and then heaps of bodies. At 7:30 a gas chamber is shown, along with typed documents revealing how the fates of many individuals were tracked. At 8:45 crematoriums are shown with open doors, left as they were found by liberating troops. At 9:22 the smokestack looms over the site. At 9:36 heaps of shoes are shown, possessions of those who perished at the camp, as well as human hair at 10:09 and heaps of clothes at 10:27. At 10:44 a pit which might be a mass grave is shown. At 11:29 heaps of ashes and human bone fragments are shown.
Oranienburg concentration camp was an early German concentration camp, one of the first detention facilities established by the Nazis when they gained power in 1933. It held the political opponents of German National Socialist party from the Berlin region, mostly members of the Communist Party of Germany and social-democrats, as well as a number of homosexual men and scores of the so-called undesirables. It was established in the center of the town of Oranienburg on the main road to Berlin when the SA took over a disused factory.Prisoners were marched through the town to perform forced labour on behalf of the local council.
The prison was taken over by the SS on 4 July 1934. It was subsequently replaced in the area by Sachsenhausen concentration camp in 1936. Sachsenhausen or Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg was a Nazi concentration camp in Oranienburg, Germany, used primarily for political prisoners from 1936 to the end of the Third Reich in May 1945. After World War II, when Oranienburg was in the Soviet Occupation Zone, the structure was used as an NKVD special camp until 1950 (See NKVD special camp Nr. 7). The camp ground with the remaining buildings is now open to the public as a museum.
At least 30,000 inmates died in Sachsenhausen from causes such as exhaustion, disease, malnutrition and pneumonia, as a result of the poor living conditions. Many were executed or died as the result of brutal medical experimentation. Over the course of its operation, over 100 Dutch resistance fighters were executed at Sachsenhausen. The Dutch subsequently sought the extradition from Czechoslovakia of Antonín Zápotocký, who became President of Czechoslovakia, for his alleged role in the murder of Dutch prisoners during his time as a kapo at the camp.
Many women were among the inmates of Sachsenhausen and its subcamps. According to SS files, more than 2,000 women lived in Sachsenhausen, guarded by female SS staff (Aufseherin). Camp records show that there was one male SS soldier for every ten inmates and for every ten male SS there was a woman SS. Several subcamps for women were established in Berlin, including in Neukölln.
Towards the end of the war, 13,000 Red Army POWs arrived at Sachsenhausen. Over 10,000 were executed in the camp by being shot in the back of the neck through a hidden hole in a wall while being measured for a uniform. Their bodies were then incinerated in a crematorium.
With the advance of the Red Army in the spring of 1945, Sachsenhausen was prepared for evacuation. On 20–21 April the camp's SS staff ordered 33,000 inmates on a forced march northwest. Most of the prisoners were physically exhausted and thousands did not survive this death march; those who collapsed en route were shot by the SS. The march ended near Raben Steinfeld on 02 May, when 18,000 remaining prisoners were liberated by tanks of the 2nd Belorussian Front. On 22 April 1945 the camp's remaining 3,000 inmates were liberated by the Red Army and the Polish Army's 2nd Infantry Division.

Gedänkstätte Sachsenhausen in Oranienburg bei Berlin.
-------
Sachsenhausenin keskitysleri Oranienburgissa. On nykyisin museo. Täällä oli natsen jälkeen myös neuvostoliittolainen leiri jossa vangit olivat saksalaisia. Oranienburgiin pääsee S-bahin junalla (ABC-vyöhyke) Berliinin keskustasta. Aluele käyntiin kannattaa varata ainakin 5 tuntia - tarjaolla olevan tiedon määrä on hämmästyttävä - ts. kaikkia tekstejä ei kannata alkaa lukea koska aika ei millään riitä. Alue on auki kaikkina päivinä mutta rakennukset/museo on suljettu maanantaisin (myös kesällä), ts. ei kannata tulla välttämättä maanantaina.
Aivan alueen vieressä näkee saksalaista omakotiasutusta. Leirin vieressä on asuttu jo sen toimiessa 1930-1940-luvuilla. Yhdessä entisessä vartiotornissa on asiaa koskeva näyttely. Tämä ei näy tässä videossa - tornissa oli pimeää ja tiedon määrää tässäkin näyttelyssä olisi ollut valtavaa.
MInusta tämä on käymisen arvoinen paikka jos aikaa Berliinissä on hieman enemmän (paikka herättää ajatuksia). Vierailuun menee siis käytännössä koko päivä mutta paikalle pääsee suhteellisen helposti (S-bahn ja noin 2 km. kävely).
Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp
Sachsenhausen (Saxon's Houses) or Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg was a Nazi concentration camp in Oranienburg, Germany, used primarily for political prisoners from 1936 to the end of the Third Reich in May 1945. After World War II, when Oranienburg was in the Soviet Occupation Zone, the structure was used as an NKVD special camp until 1950 (See NKVD special camp Nr. 7). The remaining buildings and grounds are now open to the public as a museum.
The camp was established in 1936. It was located 35 kilometres north of Berlin, which gave it a primary position among the German concentration camps: the administrative centre of all concentration camps was located in Oranienburg, and Sachsenhausen became a training centre for Schutzstaffel (SS) officers. Executions took place at Sachsenhausen, especially of Soviet prisoners of war. Among the prisoners, there was a hierarchy: at the top, criminals (rapists, murderers), then Communists (red triangles), then homosexuals (pink triangles), Jehovah's Witnesses (purple triangles), and Jews (yellow triangles). During the earlier stages of the camp's existence the executions were done in a trench, either by shooting or by hanging. A large task force of prisoners was used from the camp to work in nearby brickworks to meet Albert Speer's vision of rebuilding Berlin. Sachsenhausen was originally not intended as an extermination camp—instead, the systematic murder was conducted in camps to the east. In 1942 large numbers of Jewish inmates were relocated to Auschwitz. However the construction of a gas chamber and ovens by camp-commandant Anton Kaindl in March 1943 facilitated the means to kill larger numbers of prisoners.
Camp punishments could be harsh. Some would be required to assume the Sachsenhausen salute where a prisoner would squat with his arms outstretched in front. There was a marching strip around the perimeter of the roll call ground, where prisoners had to march over a variety of surfaces, to test military footwear; between 25 and 40 kilometres were covered each day. Prisoners assigned to the camp prison would be kept in isolation on poor rations and some would be suspended from posts by their wrists tied behind their backs (strappado). In cases such as attempted escape, there would be a public hanging in front of the assembled prisoners.
Some 30,000 inmates died there from exhaustion, disease, malnutrition, pneumonia, etc. due to the poor living conditions. Many were executed or died as the result of brutal medical experimentation. Over the course of its operation, over 100 Dutch resistance fighters were executed at Sachsenhausen. The Dutch subsequently sought the extradition from Czechoslovakia of Antonín Zápotocký, who became President of Czechoslovakia, for his alleged role in the murder of the Dutch during his time as a kapo at the camp. According to an article published on December 13, 2001 in The New York Times, In the early years of the war the SS practiced methods of mass killing there that were later used in the Nazi death camps. Of the roughly 30,000 wartime victims at Sachsenhausen, most were Russian prisoners of war.
Many women were among the inmates of Sachsenhausen and its subcamps. According to SS files, more than 2,000 women lived in Sachsenhausen, guarded by female SS staff (Aufseherin). Camp records show that there was one male SS soldier for every ten inmates and for every ten male SS there was a woman SS. Several subcamps for women were established in Berlin, including in Neukölln.
Sachsenhausen female guards included Ilse Koch, and later Hilde Schlusser. Anna Klein is also noted for her presence at the camp.
Towards the end of the war, 13,000 Red Army POWs arrived at Sachsenhausen. Over 10,000 were executed in the camp by being shot in the back of the neck through a hidden hole in a wall while being measured for a uniform. Their bodies were then burnt in a crematorium.
With the advance of the Red Army in the spring of 1945, Sachsenhausen was prepared for evacuation. On April 20--21, the camp's SS staff ordered 33,000 inmates on a forced march northeast. Most of the prisoners were physically exhausted and thousands did not survive this death march; those who collapsed en route were shot by the SS. On April 22, 1945, the camp's remaining 3,000 inmates, including 1,400 women were liberated by the Red Army and the Polish Army's 2nd Infantry Division.

Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp | 2017
Sachsenhausen Concentration camp is one of the nearest concentration camps in Berlin. Sachsenhausen is a very special place because many Nazis forced Jews people to draw propaganda for Nazi Germany. Sachsenhausen Concentration camp has been ''reconstructed'' and there are only 4 barracks left in camp. You can still see how it was to be in Sachsenhausen and that is the most important, you will see how they lived and what did they do with the people they murdered during the war. Sachsenhausen Concentration camp is located just 35 km from Berlin and you can easily book a tour to this place. I will definitely recommend you to rent an audio guide (Price 3€). The entrance to the Sachsenhausen is free.
When you go to Sachsenhausen I will recommend you to bring food and a lot of water, especially on summer.
I hope you enjoy your stay at Sachsenhausen as I did.
*TOP TIP*
Do some research before you go to Sachsenhausen so you can understand more what was the difference between Sachsenhausen and Auschwitz and many others concentration camps.

This is a somber, thoughtful trip through the remains of Sachsenhausen, which is locate a 30 minute S-Bahn ride to the north of Berling, in the city of Orianienberg. It has become a memorial and a reminder of what can happen, and something that going to this place make you think of. The stories of what happened here are unbelievable, but must be heard.
