Although the most widespread term was the aforementioned “Muselmann” (because of the posture adopted by the prisoners, which resembled the posture of prostration in Islam), in some camps the terms “Gamel” (from “rotten”) and “Krypel” (from “crippled” or “lame”) were also used.

A prisoner in the Nazi concentration camp of Nordhausen shows the pitiful physical condition of one of his fellow inmates.

Prisoners in that state were commonly referred to as “Muselmann”.

Many died in the days following liberation.

Eighty-one years ago, on January 27, 1945, the Soviet army liberated the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz.

More than 1,100,000 people died in the nearly five years that the camp was operational. Nearly 216,000 of them were children.

Never again.
