| Huta drawing 109/16 concerns both Krematorium II and III. In producing it, Huta used the following Bauleitung drawings: |
| |
|
| · |
Section a b: 934; |
| · |
Basement cross-section: Leichenkeller 2 (above) and 1 (below): 934; |
| · |
Section e f: probably from Bauleitung drawing 1434, not found; |
| · |
Section c d: 1174, but with the floor thickness greatly increased; |
| · |
Section g h: 1173/1174, omitting the front elevation of the future Kr II; |
| · |
Ground floor: 933, and 980 for the ventilation chimney; |
| · |
Section i k and 1 m: drawn by Huta on the basis of the relevant Bauleitung drawings. They show the exact trace and dimensions of the Leichenkeller 1 ventilation duct. |
| The original dissecting room has been divided in two by a thin partition wall to create a smaller dissection room and a laboratory. |
| Huta drawing 109/16a contains no “criminal traces” but gives details of the ventilation system of Leichenkeller 1 (future gas chamber), in particular the fresh air duct. |
