Chelmno is in a part of Poland that had been annexed by Germany in 1939. It is to the north of Lodz.
Chelmno was an extermination camp, and the prisoners were gassed as soon as practical - ususally within 24 hours of arrival. They were not of course given a 'last meal'; they were not fed. (It was a 'killing facility' and served no other purpose). As at all extermination camps, a very small number of healthy-looking new arrivals were selected to help with aspects of the killing process itself - in particular, digging mass graves. There are only two known survivors.
