The right hand door is the main entrance,
northwest, of Krematorium I in 1945 [May?]. It is not known whether
this door is original or has just been fitted. Restoration work is
in progress. The left-hand door leads to the former medical store
and was subsequently to be converted back into a window. |

The southeast access to the second
air lock of the air raid shelter for the SS hospital, the building
visible in the background, behind the trees, in 1945. This entrance
led directly to the former gas chamber of Krematorium I. Though it
had nothing to do with the gas chamber it was preserved during the
restoration, whereas it should have been filled in to respect
historical facts. |
