When I was in London last September, I visited the Imperial War Museum. They have holocaust memorial as part of their exhibition. The most striking thing about this memorial was the scale model that they had made of the Auschwitz concentration camp. The model itself was vast and it was just a small portion of the facility.
As you'll see from the photos, it is not like any model we ever see in college. Here is scaled depiction of mass murder on a mechanised scale. There is also the distinct, and unpleasant possibility that this wasn't the first model that was made of the Auschwitz scheme. It is very possible the the Nazi architects and engineers also built a scale model to show Himmler how the death camp would look and operate.
