Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp, officially abbreviated to KL Sachsenhausen, was a Nazi concentration camp established in the summer of 1936 by prisoners from the Emsland camps. It was located in the town of Oranienburg, north of Berlin. However, it is neither geographically nor chronologically identical to the Oranienburg Concentration Camp, which existed in Oranienburg near the city center from 1933 to 1934. The eponymous town of Sachsenhausen is located near the camp grounds, but the concentration camp and special camp were located in the Sandhausen district of the city of Oranienburg.
