Ovens of the old crematorium in the former Dachau Concentration Camp (Konzentrationslager Dachau), now the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site (KZ-Gedenkstätte Dachau) in Dachau near Munich in Bavaria, Germany. The crematorium was built in the summer of 1940, after the foreign prisoners arrived and the mortality rate greatly increased. The crematorium was in operation until about April 1943. During this period approximately 11,000 prisoners were cremated here.
