First Trip to Auschwitz The Main Gate

Auschwitz, synonymous with the murder of over one million people. Of the many satellite camps that made up the Auschwitz complex in the 1940's two, possibly three are well known; the best known being Auschwitz Birkenau or Auschwitz II, the Stammlagger or Auschwitz I and possibly less well known Monowitz or Auschwitz III.

My first visit was to the Stammlager was I the heat of June 2009. Below is the first video I took of any camp. Its a shaky effort to take the main gate with a new camera. Also shows the block where the kitchens were housed.



Over the years I have taken several pictures of the main gate:
