Auschwitz-Birkenau, An In-Depth And Poignant Visit In Poland
Perhaps no event in the 20th century had a bigger impact on the world than the Holocaust. Between 1941 and 1945, 11 million people, including 6 million Jews and 1.5 million children, were forcibly taken from their homes and shipped off to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. Dubbed The Final Solution, this massive, organized genocide was intended to exterminate the Jewish population in Europe. The Auschwitz-Birkenau camp was the biggest in the Nazi network; 1.1 million people lost their lives here. In order to preserve the memory of those who died in the camp, the Polish government transformed the site into a museum. In 1979 it was named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Each year over one million visitors come to learn about the history of the camp, to get an intimate view of daily life at the site, and to pay their respects.
