The crematorium building at Auschwitz, specifically in Auschwitz II-Birkenau, was a significant structure designed to handle mass cremations. It included several cremation ovens and facilities for managing the disposal of bodies, with dimensions that allowed for the horrific scale of operations that took place there. The building was part of a larger complex that facilitated the systematic extermination of countless victims during the Holocaust. The exact dimensions varied, but it was large enough to accommodate the gruesome processes carried out within.
