Summary

The Columbia-Haus in Berlin was part of the SS system of concentration camps and operated in the same way. It held political prisoners, who were tortured and often murdered there. In 1936 they were transferred to the new camp at Sachsenhausen. Pp. 86-143 contain memoirs of prisoners, many of them Jews; these were treated even more brutally than the others. The Columbia-Haus, like Dachau, was a "school" for SS personnel who later ran other concentration camps.
