There were 7 extermination camps. these were camps that the primary purpose of them was to kill. The victims didnt go there to do any labor but rather to just die. Out of these 7 camps there were two camps that were unique.Auschwitz- Birkenau and Majdanek. These were concentration extermination camps. The victims would first do manual labor and then were put to death. These to camps killed more then 1850000 people. the other 4 combined killed 1935000 just 85000 more then the other two. These camps used mainly gas chambers. The types of gas they used were Zyklon-B and Carbon Monoxide which would spray out of shower heads while the victims beleived that they were going to get clean they slowly but surely died.
