Location: Sachsenhausen concentration camp, Germany

Description:

Thousands of murdered prisoners were dragged down this chute into the pathology building’s Leichenkeller, or “corpse cellar”, where they awaited cremation. At Sachsenhausen, there is no claim that this room was used for executions, although the comparable room at Buchenwald Nazi camp near Weimar is the place where prisoners were murdered.
