The gas chamber

Take pause from your busy life for just a few moments and try to imagine what it must have been like to know this was the last room you would ever be in or that its stark light would be the last you would ever see. Do you ever wonder what it was like, what it felt like to be gassed?

This chamber in Mauthausen was built in the basement, below the sick quarters. Inefficient as it was, the prisoners often died of suffocation rather than the gas.
