Timesheet for the week 7th to 13th September 1942, covering the start of work on the foundations for the live three-muffle furnaces of Krematorium II. carried out by Martin Holick, an employee of Messrs TOPF & SOHNE of Erfurt. He was helped by Willi Koch, another Topf foreman, who later regulated the draught of the furnaces in Krematorien IV and V.
Topf & Sons built the ten 3-muffle furnaces of Krematorien II and III and also the two 8-muffle furnaces of Krematorien IV and V.
Several of the timesheets filled in by the Topf fitter, Messing, as well as the correspondence exchanged between Topf and the Bauleitung prove that. contrary to what was thought after the war, Messrs Topf were knowingly very much involved in preparing Krematorien II and III for homicidal use. |
