Österreich.- Konzentrationslager Mauthausen, Himmlervisite, Juni 1941
Title
KZ-Mauthausen, Himmlervisite
Description
Information added by Wikimedia users.
During the June 1941 visit of Heinrich Himmler his entourage, which included prominent war criminals August Eigruber and Ernst Kaltenbrunner (both later hanged for their crimes) visited the nearby quarry from which all the stones were cut to build the camp many meters above. A long rough granite staircase had to be surmounted as part of the path from the quarry to the camp. This was itself used as a method of working the prisoners to death, and became known as the Todesstiege which in English means "Stairs of Death." During the Himmler tour the SS and other Nazis themselves climbed the stairs of death, but did not carry any granite blocks. Eigruber is the man in the center with the moustache, bareheaded wearing a light-colored overcoat who is glancing up at the camera.
