28 December 1942 | Prof. Carl Clauberg began his experiments on female prisoners at Auschwitz to develop a non-surgical mass sterilization method.
He made sure that the Fallopian tubes were open & introduced a specially prepared chemical irritant, which caused acute inflammation. This led to the growing together of the tubes & their obstruction.

Carl Clauberg made these procedures in a brutal way. Complications were frequent, including peritonitis and hemorrhages from the reproductive tract, leading to high fever and sepsis. Multiple organ failure and death frequently followed.
While some of Carl Clauberg’s Jewish female patients died in this way, others were deliberately put to death so that autopsies could be carried out.

Before the Soviet Army approached Auschwitz Clauberg moved to KL Ravensbrück to continue his experiments. Soviet troops captured him there in 1945. In 1948 Clauberg was put on trial in the Soviet Union & was sentenced to 25 years in prison.
In 1955, he was released (but not pardoned) with a group of about 10,000 POWs and civilian internees. He returned to West Germany, where he was reinstated at his former clinic based on his prewar scientific output.
@auschwitzmuseum unbelievable. That the Germans had to be shamed into holding him to account. That he escaped justice.
