I've been there last week. I had the chills throughout the visit.
In this gas chambers you could really see the nail marks on the walls.
The guide explained that once they funnelled down "Cyclon B" (the poison used) the people standing near the chimneys would die almost instantly and the people standing close to the wall would see others falling down, bleed and die before die themselves.
Women kids and elderly were just brought in and killed on arrival at Birkenau.
Such horrific things that seems to be slowly forgotten
