Been there too albeit few years ago. One of the eeriest thing about the place is how “normal” it looks. Especially from afar when you dont see the steel wires and stuff. Or on your last pic where it looks like a normal park. To the point that if you didnt knew any better you could confuse it for some old care house or settlement. Which is i guess what the nazis were going for

The photos seem to convey the tension of this place… it’s frightening to imagine what the prisoners felt while being there.

Visited last year. I swear you could take the staunchest anti-paranormal guy on earth and he would change his tune when stepping into the remaining furnace building. Never felt such immense weight just by being in a room.

Thanks for not taking any ‘thumbs up’ pictures.

This is Auschwitz I, originally an old Austrian set of barracks, first used for Polish prisoners of war in 1939. The large camp in Brzezinka village is Auschwitz II. Auschwitz III was the Monowitz Buna Werke operated by IG Farben, a private producer of synthetic rubber that employed slave labor.

It is sad that Poland is known for places like this, but it absolutely needs to be remembered.

How did you get to it without anyone on those areas? When i was there it was packed

Some things can never be un-seen or un-felt. I went here years ago and the weight I feel from your photos made me start to cry.
So much evidence. So much tragedy. Still, we have Holocaust deniers.

I’ve seen it in person. Let’s hope that history does not repeat itself.

I actually had a crazy experience at this place like a year ago. I went there first time with my dad and were pretty freaked tbh but wanted to make a company to my exGF and our neighbor on the next trip.
So we walked there exploring for like a whole day reading, taking photos (normal ones) and just being amazed and terrified at the same time. Haven’t seen the famous “wall” on the first visit and i don’t know why it hits even harder than even the chambers where they burned people… The scratches at the walls at the basement where they tested the Zyklon B, the part with medical stuff in those connected buildings. Can’t forget such stuff ever.
BUT we were so invested in the exploration that when we went outside it was already dark and seems everyone thought that people already left and the entrance that we came from was closed. This is how we got stuck at Auszwitz after DARK xd. That place is 1000x scarier at night, believe me. I don’t know how we got into such situation but it was a crazy experience. Like knowing there is almost no alive soul on the whole territory and millions and millions of tormented souls around you and its so dark that you have to use a flashlight😳
Thankfully we managed to find an exit but i wouldn’t be who am i today if we somehow got us locked and spent a night there…
