The Vienna Gestapo headquarters was the largest of its kind in the
German Reich and the most important instrument of Nazi terror in
Austria, responsible for the persecution of Jews, suppression of
resistance and policing of forced labourers. Of the more than fifty
thousand people arrested by the Vienna Gestapo, many were subjected
to torturous interrogation before being either sent to
concentration camps or handed over to the Nazi judiciary for
prosecution. This comprehensive survey by three expert historians
focuses on these victims of repression and persecution as well as
the structure of the Vienna Gestapo and the perpetrators of its
crimes.
