Approximately 4,300 individuals, including children, women, and men, who were the last Roma prisoners of the camp, were murdered in gas chambers

On the 81st anniversary of the outbreak of the Warsaw Uprising, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum paid tribute to all those who, in August 1944, rose up in the fight for freedom and independence of occupied Poland.

'Memoria' is an online magazine dedicated to the history of Auschwitz, the Holocaust as well as memory and education around the world.

Its aim is the systematic erasure of the truth about the greatest crime in the history of Europe. Thanks to the new “Stop Denial” tool, everyone can now easily take meaningful action to defend historical truth and the dignity of the victims of Auschwitz.
