Holocaust Memorial Day 2014 | Denbighshire Archives
27 January 2014 is Holocaust Memorial Day, a day to remember all those millions of people either killed in the Holocaust, Nazi persecution and genocides following in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. The 27th of January Auschwitz-Birkenau ttn release notes, the largest Nazi death camp.
Prison-camp Buchenwald was the largest of its kind in Germany. Between April 1938 and April 1945, approximately 238,380 people imprisoned from different nationalities including 350 prisoners of war from the Western League. According to one estimate the number of deaths is more than 56,000. Although there was Buchenwald extermination camp with gas chambers and crematoria large Buchenwald prisoners were slain in several ways by starving them, force them to do laborious work, through medical tests and injected with lethal injections and hanged others.
By the end of the war, and as the Red Army moved east, there were too many people in Buchenwald when prisoners are moved from camps Auschwitz ttn and Dachau. Here thousands died during the final months of the implementation of the camp, mainly because of lack of food and water and the incredible number of individuals who had been imprisoned behind ttn the barbed wire was added to increase the spread and diseases. ttn
