General information about Auschwitz Tour

During the II World War it was the largest concentration camp of Nazi Germany, which was established in the suburbs of the city of Oświęcim (which translates to Auschwitz in German language), approximately 60 kilometers west of Krakow. Auschwitz and Birkenau, the two camps were liberated in January 1945. After the War, Polish government decided to restore Auschwitz – Birkenau and turn it into a museum honouring the victims of Nazism. Now it is part of the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
