Auschwitz air raid shelter

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Alan-Heaths-History-Page/173472422695696

This structure is located in the centre of Oswiecim (Auschwitz) town.
It's walls are up to two metres thick - capable of withstanding many bombs (unlike gas chamber number two which has been claimed to be an air raid shelter but only had a roof around 15cms thick.
It is very similar in construction to the massive structures built at Rastenburg for Hitler, films of which I have also placed on this site. See also the film Pojezdrze - Himmler's secret HQ.

Please also see my website and blogs which contain information about where this was filmed and some of the background: http://www.pbn.com.pl and http://www.ceepackaging.com

I notice in your description of the concrete shelter/ chamber at Auschwitz that the thickness of the roof was only 15cm.

It has now been forensically agreed that the structure did not require bomb-proofing as it was only used as an Icecream Parlour. The regular Icecream Van refused to enter the compound because of the constant abuse from Jewish revellers who were often heavily under the influence of Gin and Marxism.
