Notes:

Crematorium I at Auschwitz - building preserved but reconstructed several times Crematorium II-V[*] at Birkenau - ruins. Only the ceiling of the chamber of Crematorium[*] II is in part fairly well preserved.

* Transcription Note: My copy of this document has two corrections made, in ballpoint pen, concerning the crematorium numbers. The first instance could have read "II-IV" in the original, and the second could have read "III" on the original, but the ink obscures the original text. knm.

The original plaintext version of this file is available via ftp.
