5. DAUCHAU WHO WAS INVOLVED?

6. Adolf Hitler ( 20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was an Austrian-born German politician and the leader of the Nazi Party; National Socialist German Workers Party. He was chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945 and dictator of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945. He was at the centre of the founding of Nazism, World War II, and the Holocaust. Adolf Hitler.

7. The National Socialist German Workers' Party , commonly known in English as the Nazi Party, was a political party in Germany between 1920 and 1945. NAZI GOVERNMENT

8. The party was founded out of the far-right racist völkisch German nationalist movement and the violent anti-communist Freikorps paramilitary culture that fought against the uprisings of communist revolutionaries in post-World War I Germany. In 1930s the party's focus shifted to anti-Semitic and anti-Marxist themes. NAZI GOVERNMENT

9. The Jews, also known as the Jewish people, are a nation and an ethno religious group, originating in the Israelites and Hebrews of the Ancient Near East. They were the victims of the Nazi government. THE JEWS

10. The Allies of World War II were the countries that opposed the Axis powers during the Second World War (1939–1945). The Allies became involved in World War II either because they had already been invaded, were directly threatened with invasion by the Axis or because they were concerned that the Axis powers would come to control the world. THE ALLIES

11. DAUCHAU WHEN DID IT HAPPEN ?

12. In early 1937, the SS, using prisoner labor, initiated construction of a large complex of buildings on the grounds of the original camp. The number of Jewish prisoners at Dachau rose with the increased persecution of Jews and on November 10-11, 1938, in the aftermath of Kristallnacht, more than 10,000 Jewish men were interned there. START…..

13. Starting from the end of 1944 up to the day of liberation, 15,000 people died, about half of all victims in KZ Dachau. On April 26, 1945, American forces approached. On April 29, 1945, United States liberated the camp. END… …!

14. WHY ?

15. The Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler wanted to eliminate all Jews as part of his aim to conquer the world.

16. The Nazis glorified the Germans and other northern European peoples, whom they called Aryans. They claimed that Jews, Slavs, and other minority groups were inferior. Nazism opposed democracy, Communism, socialism, feminism, and other political systems and movements that claimed to favor equality.

17. DAUCHAU WHAT HAPPEN ?

18. German doctors performed cruel medical experiments on many prisoners at Dachau, and the SS used thousands of other prisoners as forced laborers in and around the camp. The SS built crematoriums (furnaces for burning human remains) to handle the high volume of deaths within the camp.

19. Prisoners underwent “selection”; those who were judged too sick or weak to continue working were sent to the Hartheim “euthanasia” killing center near Linz, Austria. Several thousand Dachau prisoners were murdered at Hartheim. Further, the SS used the firing range and the gallows in the crematoria area as killing sites for prisoners.

20. German physicians performed medical experiments on prisoners, including high-altitude experiments using a decompression chamber, malaria and tuberculosis experiments, hypothermia experiments, and experiments testing new medications. Prisoners were also forced to test methods of making seawater potable and of halting excessive bleeding. Hundreds of prisoners died or were permanently crippled as a result of these experiments.

21. In this photo, which was taken at Dachau in 1942, a clearly weakened prisoner is in a compression chamber. This experiment was designed to see how long pilots could live without oxygen. This man was one of the hundreds who died at Dachau as a direct effect of the medical experiments.

22. The freezing / hypothermia experiments were conducted for the Nazi high command. The experiments were conducted on men to simulate the conditions the armies suffered on the Eastern Front.

23. Freezing / Hypothermia The two main methods used to freeze the victim were to put the person in a icy vat of water or to put the victim outside naked in sub-zero temperatures. The icy vat method proved to be the fastest way to drop the body temperature. The selections were made of young healthlyJews or Russians. The second way to freeze a victim was to strap them to a stretcher and place them outside naked. The extreme winters of Auschwitz made a natural place for this experiment. The resuscitation or warming experiments were just as cruel and painful as the freezing experiments.

24. Dachau prisoners were used as forced laborers. At first, they were employed in the operation of the camp, in various construction projects, and in small handicraft industries established in the camp. Prisoners built roads, worked in gravel pits, and drained marshes. During the war, forced labor utilizing concentration camp prisoners became increasingly important to German armaments production.

25. HOW DID IT END… … ..!

26. April 26, 1945 - Death March to Tegernsee - Just three days before the liberation of the Dachau camp, the SS forces about 7,000 prisoners on a death march from Dachau south to Tegernsee. During the six-day death march, the SS shoots anyone who cannot keep up or continue marching. Many others die of exposure, hunger, or exhaustion. The surviving prisoners will arrive in Tegernsee on May 2, 1945, where American forces liberate them.

27. April 29, 1945 - US Forces Liberate Camp - American forces liberate the Dachau concentration camp. As they neared the camp, they found more than 30 coal cars filled with decomposing bodies at Dachau. American soldiers discover more than 30,000 prisoners in the camp. There were more than 200,000 registered prisoners during the history of the camp. Of these, more than 30,000 died. Because thousands more prisoners arrived and died in the camp without being registered, the total number of victims remains unknown.
