Auschwitz.

The first gas chamber used in September 1941 was just a prison cell which was made air-tight. After this they converted the mortuary into a gas chamber, for greater capacity and convenience (as it was in the same building as the crematorium). The next winter the first purpose built gas chambers were constructed.
