Architecture of Murder: The Auschwitz-Birkenau Blueprints

Auschwitz is universally recognized as the ultimate symbol of evil the worlds largest death factory. It is estimated that approximately 1.1 million people were murdered there, of whom a million were Jews. From a single camp in 1940, Auschwitz was transformed into a massive complex, including 3 main camps and 40 sub-camps. The establishment of the Auschwitz complex was a project that lasted years, and was never completed. In the course of the planning phase, SS draftsmen prepared hundreds of drawings and plans of the construction sites and the various buildings. These included detailed drawings of the gas chambers and the crematoria.

I visited auschwitz shortly after the Berlin Wall came down. It was part of a visit of the former East. Europe. A Dutch member of the tour said that his father as a dentist prisoner had the job of taking the gold teeth out of and searching the dead bodies for hidden gold and jewellery. He apparently spent the rest of his life waking up crying about it every night, and could not hear the word Auschwitz without breaking down completely years later.

To think this happened.....and no one did anything to stop it. "I was only following orders." Everyone and anyone who ever uttered those words needs answer to God.
