Lampshades made from human skin were allegedly made at the Buchenwald camp, ostensibly at the behest of Ilse Koch, wife of the camp Kommandant.
However, although photographs exist of items of tattooed leather that appear to be of human origin, the fact was never established in subsequent trials. Crages relating to these items were dropped for lack of evidence.
There have been claims that human skin was used to make lampshades during the Holocaust, but these claims have been widely discredited. While the Nazis did engage in numerous horrific acts of violence and genocide, there is no concrete evidence to support the alleged production of lampshades made from human skin.

Did the Nazis use tattoos for lampshades?
They didn't, but it is said that they used their skin to make other pieces of furniture, such as couches and rugs.____No. At the time of the early postwar trials of concentration camp guards some journalists said that a few of the guards had had lampshades made out of the skin of prisoners with erotic tattoos. The strange thing is that these allegations were made only about female guards - the implication being that they were demonically perverted. All this was entertaining stuff for some readers.It seems to be a popular urban legend.
