Auschwitz-Birkenau, Poland. Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp
Description
The fortified walls, the barbed wire, the platforms, the barracks, the gallows, the gas chambers and the cremation ovens all bear witness to the conditions within which the Hitlerian genocide took place in the former concentration and extermination camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the most extensive of the Third Reich. Four million people, among them a great number of Jews, were systematically starved, tortured and murdered in this camp, symbol of the cruelty of man to his fellow men in the 20th century.
