Today marks the 76th anniversary of one of the most appalling days of modern history. 76 years ago the first prisoners arrive at a new concentration camp called Auschwitz.
So much has already been written about Auschwitz therefore rather then writing something which won’t add any value I will post some pictures for a picture paints a thousand words. The pictures will be from the 3 main camps.

The horrors
1945, Auschwitz, Poland — Prisoners from Hungary arrive at the Auschwitz concentration camp, about 50 km west of Krakow, Poland, spring 1945. In the background are seen the chimneys of the crematory (R and L), in which the bodies of the murdered prisoners were burnt. The Nazi SS had the concentration camp established in 1940 and enlarged to an extermination camp in 1941. It is believed that 2.5 to 4 million people, mostly Jews, were killed here by the Nazi regime until the end of World War II in 1945. — Image by © dpa/Corbis

The victims
Auschwitz-Wartime 6
There are a great number of horrific pictures of the gas chambers and the victims but I think there are none as harrowing as the pictures below. Although they are not graphic, they do show how the victims suffered. They are pictures of scratch marks of inside the gas chambers.
