At Auschwitz alone there were five crematoriums.
Crematorium I----340 corpses could be burned every 24 hours
Crematorium II---1,440 corpses could be burned in this crematorium every 24 hours.
Crematorium III---1,440 corpses could be burned in this crematorium every 24 hours.
Crematorium IV---768 corpses could be burned in this crematorium every 24 hours.
Crematorium V---768 corpses could be burned in this crematorium every 24 hours. According to the testimony of former prisoners, the figure was higher.
At times, bodies were also burned on pyres in pits located near Crematorium V and the so-called bunkers.
Round that to 5000 corpses cremated every 24 hours and thats 35,000 per week, 140,000 per month, and 1,680,000 per year. However, not all the crematoriums at Auschwitz operated coincidentally
Crematorium I operated from August 15, 1940 until July 1943. Crematorium II functioned from March 1943 through November 1944. Crematorium III functioned from June 1943 through November 1944. Crematorium IV operated with interruptions, from March 1943 until October 7, 1944. And Crematorium V operated with interruptions, from April 1943 until January 1945.
