Commemoration of lesbian prisoners at Ravensbrück concentration camp by Initiative for Autonomous Feminist WomenLesbians from Germany and Austria, 22 April 2018

In Nazi Germany, lesbians who were sent to concentration camps were often categorized as "asocial", if they had not been otherwise targeted based on their ethnicity or political stances.[1][2] Female homosexuality was criminalized in Austria, but not other parts of Nazi Germany.[3][1] Because of the relative lack of interest of the Nazi state in female homosexuality compared to male homosexuality, there are fewer sources to document the situations of lesbians in Nazi Germany.[2]
