Death camp
A death camp is either a concentration camp, the important (though not necessarily single) function of which is to facilitate mass murder of the people deported into such a camp (such as the Nazi's Auschwitz and Majdanek, which acquired their murderous functions only some time after they had been established), or a camp specifically set up for mass extermination (such as Treblinka, Belzec and Sobibor, which were not concentration camps, but pure extermination camps). The most famous death camps are the Nazi extermination camps, used during World War II.
