Exterior roof, Morgue I, Krema II, w/holes
LEFT SIDE PHOTO: Alleged Zyklon B vent in the roof of the morgue ("gas chamber") of Krema II. The steel reinforcement rods in the concrete were never even removed. They were simply bent apart and back.

RIGHT SIDE PHOTO: Alleged Zyklon B vent in the ceiling of Morgue I of Krema II. This is the entrance to the part of the cellar which is still accessible today.

Interior Morgue I, Krema II, Bldg. BW 5b
LEFT SIDE PHOTO: Inside photo looking outward from the ruins of Morgue I (gas chamber) at Krema II. This is where Rudolf took samples from the masonry. In contrast to the delousing installation, there is no blue pigment on the walls and ceiling.

RIGHT SIDE PHOTO: The inside room located northwest of the delousing installation in building BW 5a.

Delousing building, exterior w/cyanide stains
LEFT SIDE PHOTO: The outside wall of the hydrocyanic acid delousing installation of building BW 5b is intensely blue in color from the effects of HCN. With time, the cyanide penetrated the walls and reacted with iron to form the pigment, unaffected by 50 years of weathering.

RIGHT SIDE PHOTO: The outside wall of the HCN delousing installation of building BW 5b is blue in places, even today. Fifty years of the most severe weathering has had no effect on the pigment.
