Talk:List of subcamps of Natzweiler-Struthof

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Doubt

Has anyone got a source for this list? Its surprising that a tiny camp like Natzweiler-Struthof had over 50 subcamps (more than the Auschwitz complex), and it lists large cities in Germany proper such as Frankfurt am Main and Darmstadt. (Frankfurt is about 100 miles away from Natzweiler-Struthof).

The term "subcamp" means "subordiated camp", rather than "a piece of lager camp". Before asking such questions please rememeber, google is your best friend. There are quite a few references about this fact, from reputable sources, such as Holocaust Memorial Museum mikka (t) 07:24, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

I don't quite remember where I exactly take this list from. My version differs. At this time I was doung a huge work about Nazi and Soviet labor camps. It was immense work, and in many places I left it unfinished, hoping that someone else will catch up. Unfortunately, there is not so many enthusiasts to dig the dirt of the past. It seems it is much more fun to write Pokemon articles and wage political edit wars on modern topics. mikka (t) 07:24, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Some more details about the evolution of the subcamp system are in the German article de:KZ Natzweiler-Struthof and de:Liste der Außenlager des KZ Natzweiler-Struthof. mikka (t) 07:43, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
