Auschwitz 2: Krema 2


Krema 2 was supposedly one of the two huge gas chambers/crematoria at Auschwitz-Birkenau,
apparently 0.5m people were gassed in this building
.


The candle has  "Auschwitz"  embossed upon it

Leichenkeller 1, supposedly "the gas chamber" but actually an autopsy room and office

  1. That is location of Krema 3, not Krema 2, indicated in the Google map, I suspect. The same about Krema 3 location, which is really Krema 2.

    1. Krema 2 and 3 have the same lay out. They are mirror images of each other.
