Exterior of Mauthausen Gas Chamber The green building with the
barred windows, shown in the foreground of the photo above, is
the bunker or camp prison. The white building in the background
is the former hospital, now a Museum. The sign on the side of
the white building directs visitors to the Museum exhibits. At
the far end of the hospital building is the main entry into the
Museum and the rooms where films are shown. A stairway inside
the Museum leads to more exhibits in the basement, and from
there to the gas chamber. An outside stairway, between the two
buildings, leads directly down to the basement execution room
and from there to the gas chamber. This is a view of the
crematorium chimney, taken from across the street at the open
gate into the Quarantine camp where prisoners were confined for
two weeks upon their arrival in an attempt to prevent epidemics.
The green building on the right is the bunker or camp prison. An
outside stairway at the end of the green building leads to the
execution area undergr
