Photograph of the exterior of a gas-tight door [Warsaw Central Commission Archives, ref. 23] |
|
Warsaw Central Commission Archives photographs refs. 17 (below)and 23 (above) were taken at the Auschwitz “Bauhof” ("builder’s yard” for new and recuperated building materials) and show recto and verso of a gas-tight door which certainly belonged to a homicidal gas chamber in one of the four Birkenau Krematorien. The proof of its criminal use is the presence of a heavy hemispherical grid PROTECTING THE PEEPHOLE ON THE INSIDE. |
