How many gas chambers were there in Auschwitz?

Answer 1

The first gas chamber at Auschwitz was at the main camp (Auschwitz I). The rest were at Birkenau (Auschwitz II), starting with the "bunkers," known as the Little Red House and Little White House. Finally, in 1943, the four large facilities were completed at Birkenau, for a total of seven known such facilities in the Auschwitz system.

Answer 2

5

===========

there were 5 crematoria, initially with one gas chamber in each. 4 were purpose built, one was converted from a mortuary (this one was not in the extermination camp, but in the Auschwitz concentration camp, as was the one in the punishment block)

there were also two other buildings that were converted into gas chambers, each (if memory serves) had two gas chambers in each. Also cell 9 in the punishment block was used as a gas chamber during the experimental phase.

Answer 3

When Treblinka became operational in July 1942, it initially had one building housing three gas chambers. However, during the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto, it quickly became apparent to the Nazis that this was insufficient to kill the deportees as rapidly as they wanted. Construction soon began on a second building which housed anywhere from six to ten new chambers (there is some discrepancy among the surviving Sonderkommando regarding the number.) Treblinka thus had between nine and thirteen gas chambers between late 1942 and August 1943, when the entire camp was dismantled.
