Sachsenhausen or Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg was a German concentration camp in Oranienburg, Germany, used for political, homosexual, Jewish and military prisoners from many European countries from 1936 to 1945. It was intended to be the template for all concentration camps and was a training centre for SS staff sent to other camps. The Reich administrative centre for all camps was at Orienburg. At the end of World War II Sachsenhausen was in the Soviet Occupation Zone and used as an NKVD special camp to incarcerate political activists until 1950. In 1990 mass graves from the Soviet period were discovered.
