What went on inside killing centers.

• As soon as they arrived they went through a selection process. 
• If they were sick they would be sent to gas chambers.
• If they were healthy they would sent to do labor. 
• If they weren't healthy they were sent to die. 
• This photo is of Majdanek which is the considered 6th killing center.

Locations of killing centers

• Most killing centers were in mostly rural areas. 
• Usually near railroad  lines which allowed easy transportation
• The very first killing center chelmno was located in Warthegau
• This photo is of Chelmno. 

I think that Killing centers did influence the end of the second world war due to the cruelness of what went on inside of them.
