It was a place that typified the depraved horror of the Nazi regime.
Between 1939 and 1945, more than 130,000 inmates were subjected to brutal forced labour, starvation, torture, executions and grotesque medical experiments at Ravensbruck.
Now, the story of what was the Nazis' only concentration camp exclusively for women is set to be re-told in a film starring Diane Kruger.
First-look pictures released this month for Each of Us show the the 48-year-old star, who dazzled at Cannes at the weekend, in character as a prisoner in the camp.
Dressed in a striped prison uniform to echo what actual Ravensbruck inmates had to wear, she is seen looking sombre as she walks in character alongside a younger co-star.
