20 Mind-Blowing Facts About Adolf Hitler

11. He Never Set Foot In A Concentration Camp

The vast majority of the 11 million people killed during the Holocaust were murdered at the 1,200 Death and Concentration Camps established by the Nazis - yet Hitler never set foot in one of them. In some ways it is perhaps unsurprising due to the fact the majority of the camps were constructed in the east, but still it is a rather baffling fact.

Interestingly, some historians have argued that the camps were deliberately set up in Poland, the Czech Republic, the USSR, and Yugoslavia because Hitler wanted the number of atrocities committed on German soil to be limited.
