Stutthof Concentration Camp

Stutthof was a Nazi concentration camp established in 1939 near GdaƄsk, Poland, used to imprison, exploit, and brutalize Jews, political opponents, and others during World War II. Prisoners faced forced labor, inhumane living conditions, and mass executions. The camp became a symbol of the Holocaust's atrocities, with thousands losing their lives through murder, starvation, or disease. It was liberated by Allied forces in 1945. Today, Stutthof serves as a memorial to remember the victims and educate about the horrors of genocide and war.
