After Dachau satellite Camp Number Four was declared a camp for the sick, and nicknamed \u201cDeath Camp\u201d, there was not much to do and little to hope for. We languished from the diseases that afflicted us, and were tormented by the lice that attacked us from all sides.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Concentration camp prisoners still considered to be fit for work were transferred to Kaufering I, whereas sick people from other camps were deported to Kaufering IV. There was a lack of medication, dressing material and medical instruments. Based on the last known place of detention, more than 2,500 prisoners perished in camp IV since January 1945.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_single_image media=”83874″ caption=”yes” media_width_percent=”70″ media_ratio=”four-three” alignment=”center” media_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.landsberg-kaufering-erinnern.de%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F10%2F2.5.5-Foto-1-c-USHMM_Web.jpg|target:_blank|”][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_column_text]Evacuation commenced on 25 April 1945. All prisoners able to walk were sent on a death march or by train to Dachau concentration camp. The train became the target of an Allied air strike.<\/p>\n

Camp physician, Dr Max Blancke, gave the order to set the camp on fire on 27 April before the arrival of the US American troops. He committed suicide that same day.<\/p>\n

Today a gravel pit and the Hurlach concentration camp cemetery are located on the former camp premises.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_column_text text_lead=”yes” border_color=”color-776133″]<\/p>\n

Usually, prisoners who could no longer walk were soon transferred to Camp Four. The Germans referred to it as the \u201dsick camp\u201d, but in reality it was a death camp, not much better than Auschwitz, only without gas chambers. In Camp Four, men were left lying naked on the wooden panels. Their rations were drastically reduced, and most of them starved to death. As far as we knew, nobody returned from this camp.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
