Historical sites
editSeveral extermination camps are shown in the film: Dachau, Sachsenhausen, Buchenwald, Flossenbürg, Mauthausen, Ravensbrück, Stutthof and Bergen Belsen.
Filming
editProduction of The Final Journey began in 1998 and remains as a work in progress with part two, the Extermination camp, set for release in 2012.[needs update] These sites known as Vernichtungslager functioned primarily as places of genocide as the answer for the Nazi question of the Jewish problem. Film crews for both part 1 and 2 of The Final Journey covered every aspect of each major camp located in Germany and the former occupied territories of the Third Reich.
