This is the other concentration camp in Auschwitz, also known as Auschwitz II. Birkenau was specifically built for extermination and is a much more depressing sight than the original Auschwitz. I’ll post more from Birkenau. This pic is just a fence but when you think of the fact that hundreds of thousands of people suffered and died behind it for no reason at all less than a century ago…well it becomes more than just a fence.
