Northern corner of Krematorium I, present state. The building on the right was that housing the SS hospital of the camp. The first floor windows afforded a direct view down onto the roof of Krematorium I, and hence on the SS-men pouring Zyklon-B through the traps during gassing. At such times it was forbidden to look out of the windows. The proximity of these buildings led to the southwest part of the crematorium being converted into an air raid shelter for the SS hospital in September 1944. |
