Auschwitz: drone video of the Nazi concentration camp – BBC News
The drone video shows the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp as it is today – it has been 70 years since the liberation of Soviet troops. The camp in Poland is now preserved as a World Heritage Site and is home to thousands of tourists and survivors each year. Auschwitz was the largest camp established by the Germans during World War II. More than a million people – most of them Jews – were killed there in 1940, when it was built and in 1945, when the Soviet army liberated it.
Railways to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Trains filled with victims from all over Europe arrived at the campsite almost daily between the summer of 1942 and 1944.
Birkenau's Wooden Hut Remnants – As a death camp built in Birkenau (or Auschwitz II) in 1941, the wooden huts are in ruins with only brick fireplaces and fireplaces.
Entries from Auschwitz I – The forged iron entrance sign Arbeit Macht Frei bears "free you".
Auschwitz I – The brick buildings under construction were former barracks of the Polish Army.
Backyard between blocks 10 and 11 of Auschwitz I – inmates called block 11 a "death lock". Executions were conducted between Block 10 and Block 11, and yard posts were used to remove prisoners ’wrists.
Auschwitz Birkenau is a museum run by the Polish Ministry of Culture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
