Arbeit Macht Frei |
Gas chamber and crematorium |
Door to the gas chamber |
Surviving gas chamber in Auschwitz |
Empty canisters that held the gas pellets |
Birkenau |
There are 1.5 million cobblestones, one for each victim murdered at Auschwitz-Birkenau |
The guards tried to destroy all the evidence before the Soviets reached the camps. This is all that remains of the large extermination chamber. |
This chamber and crematory could handle 2,000 people per day. |
The chamber has been untouched since the Soviet liberated the camps as a memorial to the victims. |
Standing quietly in a block house that housed women in the last week of their lives. I closed my eyes and could feel the energy of their spirits still present. |
