{{Villain_Infobox |Image = Margot Dreschel.jpg |fullname = Margot Dreschel |occupation = SS Auxiliary |skills= Nazi Authority |crimes = Mass [[Murder]] |type of villain = Nazi War Criminal }} {{Quote|...camp leader Dreschel was there, her buck teeth sticking out, even when her mouth is closed.|A former prisoner at Auschwitz concentration camp}} '''Margot Elisabeth Dreschel''', also spelled '''Drexler''', was an SS auxiliary during [[World War II]]. ==Early life and career== Margot Dreschel was born in Neugersdorf, Germany on May 17, 1908. Nothing is known about her life until January 31<sup>st</sup>, 1941 except that she worked in Berlin, probably in an office. At the aforementioned date, she began guard training at Ravensbrück concentration camp under [[Johanna Langefeld]]. She began as a low-ranking guard overseeing the female prisoners, but soon became a Report Overseer. ==Job in Auschwitz== In April 1942, Dreschel was transferred to the infamous [[Auschwitz Birkenau|Auschwitz-Birkenau]] concentration camp in Poland during [[The Holocaust]]. She served at the women's camp under the command of [[Maria Mandel]] and was an associate of [[Josef Mengele]]. She was the head of all the camp offices at Auschwitz and was notorious within the camp for the brutal beatings she performed. She was also personally involved with the selection of Jews to be sent to the gas chambers where they would be killed. One prisoner stated: {{Quote|Once Mrs Drechaler [Dreschel] came with her huge bloodhound, undressed everybody, took away even our shoes, and we had to stand for hours completely naked, none of us were thinking of life any more, the gas chamber seemed unavoidable.}} She later transferred again, this time to Flossenbürg concentration camp, where she was responsible for training enlisted overseers. In 1945, she was transferred back to Ravensbrück, from where she escaped after the [[Nazi Party]] surrendered. ==Death== In 1945, a group of Auschwitz survivors recognised Dreschel on the road to Bautzen in the Soviet Union's area of Germany. They attacked her and handed her over to the police. She was condemned to death and hanged in Bautzen in May 1945 (some reports suggest June).
