View of railroad tracks leading to the gas chambers and crematoria from main guard tower at Auschwitz ii - Birkenau. The crematoria were situated at the back of the camp. If you look at the surveillance photo of the camp, this is the view to the lefthand side, toward the back. As you can see from the bird's eye view, this was the smaller part of the complex, which extends far to the right, out of view in this photo.
