Nazi Germany built concentration camps in Poland to kill large numbers of people in them, as part of the Final Solution plan.
The Final Solution is the name of the Third Reich's plan to carry out the systematic elimination of the European Jewish population during the Second World War. Only after the war ended, the "Final Solution" became known as the Holocaust or Shoah, that is, the process that involved the systematic deportation and extermination of all persons classified as Jewish by the Nazis, regardless of the religion that effectively professed.
The extermination camps were designed specifically for the elimination of people. Six of the seven German extermination camps were built in the present territory of Poland and were equipped with gas chambers and other means.
