Painful execution of Nazi SS officers who shot and burned 360 people alive in Kaufering

In Bavaria, two major camp systems, Mühldorf and Kaufering, were set up as subcamps of the Dachau concentration camp where the inmates provided the labor necessary to build subterranean facilities for fighter aircraft production in the Landsberg area. One of the Kaufering survivors, Norbert Fried, later recalled: “We lived in so-called earth huts—a trench covered with a roof. There was one window and one door. 50 prisoners in each hut. 12 meters long and less than two meters wide. We slept on the wooden floor, one blanket but no pillow..." The larger of Kaufering's 11 camps each contained several thousand prisoners, the vast majority of whom were Jews. The deportees toiled in underground armaments bunkers, where they were subjected to Draconian abuse and executed for trivial reasons and to intimidate the other prisoners. People who arrived at the Kaufering subcamps had already been held in other camps or ghettos or had been forced to march long distances. They were therefore already very weak when they arrived at Kaufering where they were then forced to do hard labor, such as clearing trees, removing tree roots, building earth walls, laying rails, and loading and unloading cement bags and other heavy goods, with little food. Instead of in the gas chamber, Jewish prisoners in the Kaufering subcamps were driven to their deaths with work for the German arms production. Prisoners had to line up for roll call as early as 5 a.m. and then walk to their workplaces, sometimes over long distances. Kaufering IV, where Fried was imprisoned, was located between villages Kaufering and Hurlach and was established in September 1944 for 500 prisoners. The population later grew to 3,000. Prisoners were forced to work at the Lagerlechfeld airfield, in road construction, and on the bunker Walnuss II until Kaufering IV was converted into a "sick camp", where prisoners were sent to die after they could no longer work. When a typhus epidemic broke out in early 1945, the camp physician Dr. Max Blancke and the SS guards would not enter the barracks to avoid infection and prisoner doctors could do little, as they had no medicine or equipment. At that time, the camp’s commandant was Johann Eichelsdörfer who had taken charge of the camp on the 4th of January 1945.
