The inmates were sent by the tens of thousands from the railway station through the camp gate to the disinfection building and the depot. Most of them then landed in the "Little Camp", to be sent on from there to one of the arms production commandos. There were thousands of adolescents and children among them. One of the youngest, a four-year-old Jewish boy from Poland, was hidden here by political prisoners. Over 900 others survived in the children's barracks No. 8 and 66.HM Number | HM1G7P |
