Освенцим. Польша. 1940-1945
Фото склада там огромные помещения до потолка заполнен ботинками жертв. Фото ужасает и такое видя, понимаешь масштаб трагедии и планку безчеловечности.

Спасибо за важный и тяжёлый вопрос. Сразу честно: «полный список всех концлагерей» с точными числами и «складским учётом обуви» сделать невозможно — нацисты уничтожали следы (операция Sonderaktion 1005), демонтировали лагеря, сжигали документы и тела, а лагерных точек было десятки тысяч (не только лагеря, но и гетто, тюрьмы, команды принудительного труда и т. д.). Историки фиксируют более 44 000 мест заключения в Европе 1933–45 гг.

Ниже — выжимка по крупнейшим лагерям, в алфавитном порядке, с ориентировочными оценками погибших (по музеям и энциклопедиям). Это не «все», но это главные узлы нацистской лагерной системы.

Аушвиц-Биркенау (Освенцим), Польша — убиты около 1,1 млн человек, преимущественно евреев. При эвакуации в январе 1945 г. состоялись «марши смерти».

Auschwitz-Birkenau

О обуви: в коллекции музея — порядка 110–120 тысяч единиц обуви, сохранившихся после войны.

Белжец, Польша — не менее 434 000 убитых (многие исследования дают ~500–600 тыс.). Лагерь был разобран, тела эксгумированы и сожжены в рамках сокрытия следов.
Wikipedia

Берген-Бельзен, Германия — около 50–52 тыс. умерших (голод, болезни и пр.), лагерь освобождён британцами 15.04.1945.
Holocaust Encyclopedia
bergen-belsen.stiftung-ng.de

Бухенвальд, Германия — около 56 тыс. погибших (официальные данные мемориала).
Gedenkst;tte Buchenwald

Дахау, Германия — не менее 41 500 погибших; один из первых лагерей (с 1933/37).

Кульмхоф (Хелмно), Польша — не менее ~172 000 убитых (газовые фургоны; затем эксгумация и сожжение тел для сокрытия следов).
ushmm.org

Майданек (Люблин), Польша — около 78 000 погибших; лагерь был освобождён в июле 1944 г. практически сразу, и значительная часть улик сохранилась.
Auschwitz-Birkenau
Holocaust Encyclopedia

О обуви: на мемориале хранится порядка 280 000 единиц обуви — один из самых больших сохранившихся массивов вещественных доказательств.

Маутхаузен, Австрия — примерно ~100 000 погибших (оценка ведущих справочников/энциклопедий).

Равенсбрюк, Германия (женский лагерь) — не менее 28 000 погибших; многие оценки дают 30–50 тыс.
KZ Gedenkst;tte Dachau

Собибор, Польша — порядка 170–180 тыс. убитых; после восстания заключённых лагерь был демонтирован для сокрытия преступлений.
Holocaust Encyclopedia

Штуттгоф, Польша — около ~65 тыс. погибших.
Wikipedia

Терезин (Терезинштадт), Чехия — примерно 33 тыс. умерших в самом гетто-лагере; десятки тысяч депортированы далее на уничтожение.

Треблинка, Польша — около ~925 тыс. евреев убиты; лагерь демонтирован осенью 1943 г. для сокрытия улик.
Holocaust Encyclopedia

Что делали нацисты, чтобы «замести следы»

Операция Sonderaktion 1005 (1942–44): эксгумация массовых захоронений, сожжение тел на открытых решётках/кострах, дробление костей, уничтожение документов. Применялась в Белжеце, Собиборе, Треблинке, Хелмно и на расстрельных полигонах.
wwv.yadvashem.org

Демонтаж лагерей смерти: инфраструктура разрушалась, площадки маскировались (например, Треблинка, Собибор, Белжец).
Holocaust Encyclopedia

Эвакуации и «марши смерти» в 1944–45 гг.: десятки и сотни тысяч узников гнали на запад; многие погибли в пути.
Holocaust Encyclopedia

Где не успели: Майданек — освобождён в июле 1944 г., многое сохранилось и было зафиксировано сразу; Аушвиц — несмотря на эвакуацию в январе 1945 г., остались огромные материальные улики (в т. ч. склады вещей).
Holocaust Encyclopedia
+1

Про «склады с обувью» и почему нельзя «сложить всё до пары»

Это вещественные доказательства масштаба преступления, но не «полная ведомость». Нацисты вывозили/перепродавали одежду и обувь, часть погибла при сожжениях и разрушениях, часть сохранилась очагами.

Документированно сегодня: в Аушвице — ~110–120 тыс. единиц обуви; в Майданеке — ~280 тыс.. Уже только эти два массива дают ~390–400 тыс. предметов, но это лишь малая доля от изъятого на всём пространстве оккупации. Подсчитать «общую сумму обуви за все годы и все лагеря» невозможно корректно.

Как этим материалом бережно делиться с людьми

Короткая вводная: что такое лагерная система, почему цифры — оценки, а не бухгалтерия.

Алфавитный список ключевых лагерей (как выше) — по 1–2 строки на каждый.

Раздел «Как уничтожали улики» — одно-два понятных абзаца об Sonderaktion 1005, демонтаже лагерей и маршах смерти.
Holocaust Encyclopedia

Вещественные доказательства: обувь, волосы, чемоданы — как работать с этим этично (без сенсационности, с уважением к жертвам).

[Позже:
 превратить это в короткий публикуемый текст «для людей» (на 700–900 слов, без таблиц, с понятными ссылками на музеи и энциклопедии) — скажи, для какого сайта/формата ты готовишь публикацию (эссе, заметка, пост), и я сразу выдам готовую чистовую версию].
