Auschwitz Album

From Yad Vashem: World Holocaust Center, Jerusalem’s Facebook:



The Auschwitz Album is the only surviving visual evidence of the process leading to the mass murder at Auschwitz-Birkenau. The photos in the album were taken exactly 75 years ago, in late May/early June 1944. The photos in the album show the entire process except for the killing itself.

^ I’ve known about the Auschwitz Album for several years (right before I started working at the USHMM) and it still upsets me to see the pictures knowing what is going to happen to these people . The above post has a slight error in it. It says it happened 75 years ago when it was 78 years ago. ^
