Dachau Concentration Camp Research Paper

Introduction
Bodies littered the ground. The wind blew human ashes all around and starving people wandered the camp in search of food. Dachau was a place where you work or be killed. Nazis offered no help to any of the prisoners, nor did they care that hundreds of people were dying around them. The Dachau concentration camp was full of deadly experiments, cold-hearted people, and high percentages of death.
Dachau Prisoners Dachau imprisoned a lot of people and some of them weren’t a part of any religion. Dachau was made by Heinrich Himmler, and was made to train German soldiers, but Jews were soon made prisoners there. The Dachau concentration camp started to take people in since 1933. Mostly people who were religious were sent there, but
They had deadly showers for the prisoners and the doctors did experiments on the captives. Some would say that the Dachau Concentration camp was a "massive killing system” (Friess, 2015). Prisoners who were experimented with usually died. An example would be when they were searching for the cure for malaria. The Nazis stuck liquid into the prisoners blood. This was very fatal and most of the captives that were experimented on with this died. A scientist named Dr. Rascher had a new experiment that was also very fatal for the prisoners. He would do a freezing cold experiment that worked at below zero temperatures. Mostly all the prisoners who had this experiment done to them were killed as well. There was also a building made for killing large amounts of prisoners. It was called the 'Gas Chamber'. Large amounts of people would walk in and the ceiling would have poison gas fall from it (Never Again Jamais Plus, 2016). Several people suffered this terrible death. The Nazis had no mercy when it came to killing the
After they burned the dead people, they took their remains and threw them into holes. Although, some of Nazis put the ashes in a bag and gave it to the person's family. There are about 20,000 people who had their ashes dumped into holes at Dachau. In 1945, people searched the Dachau Camp and found clay vases full of ashes from the dead prisoners. They had names on them and dates of birth to death. Next to the ash-urns there were two wooden containers that had ashes in them from the furnaces. The ashes that were found in the barrels were placed in empty vases like the ones the known people had. They were sealed tightly. They didn't have a name though since it would be hopeless to try to find out who the unknown ashes belonged to. The unidentified ashes belonged to many different races. There were about 4,000 vases full of ashes that no ones knew who they belonged too, They entombed the vases of the unknown in the Perlach Cemetery (Never Again Jamais Plus, 2016). The camp had over 40,000 people killed. Later the Dachau camp became a training area for the SS, or Nazis (Friess, 2015). The Nazis left the prisoners ashes in jars and burned most of the
