Dr. Joseph Mengele Documents – Food Coupons Found

Old food coupons believed to have been owned by Dr. Joseph Mengele have been found. Dr. Joseph Mengele was considered one of the sadistic Nazi doctors at the Auschwitz death camp. He was infamous for his sadistic experiments.

The documents – almost 300 in total – were found in the attic of a house being renovated in the town of Oswiecim, where the Nazis built the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp.

Also found in the attic were other documents relating to the lives of Nazi officials, including death certificates and a map.

Some sugar coupons bear the names of Horst Fischer and Fritz Klein, doctors who were executed for their crimes after the war, Adam Cyra, a historian at the Auschwitz memorial museum who is looking through the documents, said Monday.
