Commercial service complex in vicinity of the Memorial. The Maja Corp. Returns

21-07-2001

Near the main Museum parking lot and adjacent to the site of the Auschwitz I Main Camp, work has resumed on the construction of a commercial/service complex and a parking lot belonging to the Maja corporation.

Maja began construction on the site in 1996 and originally planned to build a store there. Work was suspended after protests by the international community. Under the revised plans, the complex will contain a commercial/service pavilion, a restaurant, a fast-food bar, and a parking lot. The opening is scheduled for September 2001.
