Block 10

Block 10 was a notorious barrack at the Auschwitz concentration camp, primarily used for horrific medical experiments on inmates, particularly women. Conducted by infamous Nazi doctors such as Carl Clauberg and Eduard Wirths, these experiments included sterilization procedures and exposure to harmful substances, often resulting in severe pain, infection, or death. The site symbolizes the brutal medical ethics violations during the Holocaust and serves as a grim reminder of the atrocities committed in the name of science. Visitors and researchers can reflect on the dark history of human experimentation and the resilience of those who suffered.
