Dachau Concentration Camp 1933–1945 [1]

[]

Date: 2025-07

After the German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, the Dachau concentration camp is used as an execution site for Soviet prisoners of war. The Gestapo “segregates” members of the Red Army they identify as or consider to be intellectuals, Jews, or Communist officials from the rest of the prisoners, before handing them over to be shot by the camp SS. The mass executions are first carried out in the bunker courtyard on the camp grounds and then moved to the SS shooting range at Hebertshausen. There the SS murder over 4,000 Soviet prisoners of war in 1941-42.
