Question: What was the most horrific concentration camp of ww2, in terms of pure cruelty!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Auschwitz was probably the worst especially with Dr!. Mengele performing human experiments on the camp imates!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Treblinka II – 800,000 killed in 15 months, Auschwitz-Birkenau –?1,200,000 killed in 5 years!. Of course cruelty is difficult to quantify – is it more cruel to kill a huge number quickly or to slowly kill a smaller number!?

Treblinka II was burned down during a prisoner revolt and not rebuilt as the rebellion coincided with the virtual completion of the execution of the Polish Jewish population (Operation Reinhard)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It is commonly known that this is Auschwitz in popular history!.

But there were plenty of non German and Non Axis camps in WWII, some in the US and some in Japan and many in Russia!.

Russian Camps were often just as bad as German camps!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it was Auschwitz-Birkenau!.
That was the concentration camp where Dr!. Mengele made very cruel experimentations on humans!.
