Buchenwald concentration camp

Description: The SS barracks complex was close to the main camp and consisted of sixteen buildings all located in a semi-circle around the parade ground. Each barracks housed one-hundred Schutzstaffel men. The complex also included the following buildings: a casino, the armory, an SS military hospital, rifle range, the parade ground, the garage and two gas stations. The compound was designed by more than one staff Standarte and used as a training base for the SS "Totenkopf" (later the Waffen SS).
