Liebehenschel was hanged by the Poles for war crimes.

B. was only one year old when the war ended, but is in close touch with her mother Anneliese (who was private secretary to Glücks, overall chief of the concentration camp system) and sister, who both still live in Germany. In
September 1998, B. visited Auschwitz, and she wrote us this letter on November 11, 1998:

Can
you tell me if the crematorium that I saw at
Auschwitz
I
(main camp) was ever used at this camp? Even Anneliese
said, “those were not there”, when she saw the pictures I
took of the inside and outside. The originals at Birkenau
were destroyed before the evacuation of the camp, were
they not?

I am busy working on my book, and yes, I took pictures at
Auschwitz.

Sincerely,
B.
