The ruined remains of Crematorium IV at the former Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz Birkenau.


The ruined remains of Crematorium IV at the former Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz Birkenau. This building functioned, with interruptions, from March 1943 until October 7, 1944. The building was burned down on the day of the mutiny of the Jewish prisoners from the Sonderkommando. The room visable at this end of the ruin was the largest of several gas chambers in the building.
