Auschwitz-Birkenau history
We believe Auschwitz is something much more than just a regular Museum. One should think of a visit in more of an 'life experience' category. For some people it is world's largest cemetery, for the others one of the most important witnesess of the tragedy of World War II. No matter what your interest is, we believe everybody should see it. Auschwitz began as a concentration camp for Polish political
  
  
prisoners. In 1942, it became the center for extermination of European Jews. On this tour you will witness where the Nazis killed about 1.5 million people - mainly Jews, but also Poles, Gypsies, Russians and other nationalities - between 1940 and 1945.
The tour of Auschwitz-Birkenau
Your tour begins with a 15 minute documentary film about the liberation of the camp. Then a museum guide will show you the exhibitions in some of the surviving prison blocks, the gas chamber and the crematorium.
After a short break, the tour continues to Birkenau, where you go up to the watchtower above the entrance gate to see the view of the biggest Nazi Concentration Camp. A Martyrdom Museum was set up here in 1947.In 1979, UNESCO included Auschwitz-Birkenau in its list of World Heritage sites
