ENTRY DESCRIPTION
From my "Duty of memory" series.
Natzweiler-Struthof was the only concentration camp established by the Nazis on present-day French territory, though there were French-run temporary camps such as the one at Drancy.
At the time, the Alsace-Lorraine area in which it was established was administered by Germany as an integral part of the German Reich.
The camp held a crematorium and a gerry-rigged gas chamber outside the main camp. Even if it was not used for mass extermination, 22000 people died due to strenuous work, medical experiments, poor nutrition and mistreatment by the SS guards.
