The sheet is composed of a large map of Eastern Europe from Estonia to the Sudetenland.  The primary focus of the map is to illustrate the prosecution of the end stages of the "Final Solution" whereby smaller camps and ghettos throughout Eastern Europe were closed and their prisoners transferred to the large-scale extermination camps of Auschwitz, and then from Auschwitz transferred farther West to camps in Germany and elsewhere.
The map presents important data about the effect of the German military and territorial losses on the implementation of the Final Solution.
The inset map "Räumung des KZ-Auschwitz" | Evacuation of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp) shows movements of prisoners to and from Auschwitz in late 1944 and early '45.
