Christel Jankowsky was a high ranking concentration camp guard in Nazi Germany.

Christel Jankowsky was born in 1919 in Rangnit, Germany. She was at first an Aufseherin at the Ravensbruck concentration camp in 1943. She trained under Binz, a sadistic assistant Oberaufseherin who was later hanged. Because Christel was a reliable female guard in the camp, the authorities promoted her to the rank of Scharfuhrerin (Female Lance Corporal). Her rank gave her absolute power over the "Politicals" section of the camp. Eventually Christel was moved to the Neu Rohlau subcamp of Flossenburg located in Saxony, near Dresden. There he continued her brutal reign. Soon after the SS moved the young female opressor to the Oederan subcamp of Flossenburg as deputy chief female overseer. After the war, in 1954, an East German court sentenced Christel to death for the maltreatment and murder of prisoners in the three camps during the last three years of World War II. Her ultimate fate is unknown.
