Searching for persons
Research and search requests
Are you a relative of a former prisoner of the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp system? Would you like to find out more about the fate of a specific person? Or are you researching members of the SS personnel? In these cases, you can send us a research request, which we will process as quickly as possible.
Due to the high number of inquiries, we ask for your understanding that processing them may take some time. We recommend that you first use the online database of the Arolsen Archives. If you need further or more specific information, you can contact us using the form below. Please fill out the form as completely as possible and provide us with all known information about the person you are looking for. Even incomplete information about places or events can be helpful.
By sending this web form I give my consent that my personal data (surname, first name, address, email) will be saved and documented for the purposes of answering my search request and I acknowledge the Data Protection Statement.
