Description
Over two hundred women served the SS in KL Auschwitz. They were divided into three groups according to the duties they performed: the biggest group constituted the so-called Aufseherinnen whose main task was to watch over women prisoners; the second group was formed by women employed in communication services described as SS-Helferinnen working in SS headquarter offices as radiotelegraph operators, tenographers and telephone operators; the last group consisted of nurses.
Dr. Sylwia Wysińska from the Archives of the Museum talks about the women supervivors at Auschwitz
