Located in a wooded patch north of Munich, Dachau opened in 1933 as the Nazis' first concentration camp, not long after Adolf Hitler came to power.
The original plan was to house 5,000 political prisoners there, but SS leader Heinrich Himmler extended Dachau's mandate to forced labor, the imprisonment of Jews and warehousing prisoners of war.
The camp ended up including nearly 100 satellite facilities, which were mostly work camps.

Between 1933 and 1945, Nazi Germany and its allies established more than 44,000 camps and other incarceration sites (including ghettos).
The perpetrators used these locations for a range of purposes, including forced labor, detention of people deemed to be "enemies of the state," and mass murder.
Millions of people suffered and died or were killed.
Among these sites was Dachau the longest operating camp. https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/dachau - September 8, 2020
