Auschwitz-Birkenau was an extermination camp.

the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
Recorded sources
10 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Auschwitz-Birkenau was an extermination camp?

Yes. Multiple reference works and book records explicitly list Auschwitz-Birkenau among the Nazi extermination (death) camps, and several scientific and scholarly items incidentally describe it as a former concentration and extermination camp.
