I've been to the Dachau Concentration Camp and there are gas chambers there. They were supposedly never used because Dachau was apparently not an extermination camp. Prisoners that were to be gassed were sent to other camps. But prisoners at Dachau claim that the gas chambers were used. According to records though, they were never used. Strange though, how they would take the time to make gas chambers, yet apparently never use them...
After visiting Dachau, I refuse to believe that the gas chambers were never used. The fingernail scratches on the walls and ceiling seem to suggest they were a little more than "showers."
The vast majority of those corpses are totally emaciated which suggests they probably died of disease. Even Anne Frank died of typhus, and not by the gas chamber.
I have to agree with smileyface... I've also been there and saw the chambers with the spray nozzles protruding from the ceiling. You can also see the claw marks that still remain on the inside of the doors.

All that proves is they were starving to death, the jews were being exterminated in many ways not just gas.

No gass chambers were ever used in Dachau, the one's you saw were constructed after WW2.
