Facts and practical information

The Red House, the first makeshift gas chamber in Auschwitz II-Birkenau, and the second in the entire Auschwitz-Birkenau camp, as it was previously used as an adapted morgue in the main camp. The colloquial name of the building comes from its unplastered brick facade. It was located on the grounds of Auschwitz II, and the plot of land on which it stood was moved out of its territory after the war when the museum was established.
