The Gas Chambers

The railway carriages were unloaded one after another. After leaving their luggage the Jews had to pass individually in front of an ss doctor, who decided if they were fit enough for work. Those fit enough were taken off into small groups. The remainder were taken to the gas chambers, the men being separated from the women. In the undressing room the Jewish prisoners were told in their own language that they were going to be bathed and deloused, that they must leave their clothes neatly together and remember where they had put them so they would be able to find them quickly, after delousing. After undressing they went into the gas chambers, which were furnished with showers and water pipes and looked like a real bath house. Rudolf Hoss visited the Treblinka camp where the commandant used monoxide gas.
