Ravensbrück, recalled Denise Dufournier, a prisoner at the camp, was “like a mysterious planet, where the macabre, the ridiculous, and the grotesque rubbed shoulders in a fantastic irrational chaos.” The only concentration camp designed specifically for women by the Nazis, Ravensbrück “accommodated” about 125,000 individuals from 1939 to 1945.
