Living Conditions and Daily Life
In the morning the prisoners would go through roll call then to meal time. They were serve imitation coffee or tea. Then comes lunch, they were served a small portion of watery soup. In the evening they were given a small piece of black bread together and a tiny piece of sausage, and maybe margarine, or cheese. Because of the lack of food, the prisoners would sometimes get weak or die of starvation sickness, also they would lose weight and muscle making them to weak to work and then were sent to the gas chambers, where they were gassed by the Nazis. The prisoners would work on building more to the camp, such as laying new roads, constructing new buildings and blocks. They were put by mines and mills, so that they would dig for coal, produce armaments and chemicals, and expand the camps.
