Gas Chambers and Crematoria at Auschwitz
in the death camps of Auschwitz The people who were chosen and sent to the immediately the selection, which was the majority of those who arrived at Auschwitz where killed or kept just for sometime then got killed.
Before being killed, they were told they first needed to be disinfected and have showers.
The victims were ushered into an ante-room, where they were told to remove all their clothing. Completely naked, these men, women, and children were then ushered into a large room that looked like a big shower room (there were even fake shower heads on the walls). When the doors shut, a Nazi would pour Zyklon-B pellets into an opening (in the roof or through a window) which would turn into poison gas once it contacted air.
The gas killed quickly, but it was not instantaneous. Victims, finally realizing that this was not a shower room, clambered over each other, trying to find a pocket of breathable air. Others would claw at the doors until their fingers bled.
Although Auschwitz, did have a gas chamber, the majority of the mass murdering occurred in Auschwitz II: Birkenau's four main gas chambers, each of which had its own crematorium. Each of these gas chambers could murder about 6,000 people a day.
besides the gas. the Nazis would also had other ways to "dispose" of the jews. this included starvation, disease, and torture. the nazis would feed the jews very little. the bowls of soup where basicly just puddles, the bread was mostly crumbs. they also would make them work with out clothes in the cold weather this made them get diseases make them sick and die. they would also torture them.

making them work in the harsh conditions would make them die faster from disease and from torture
