The 70th anniversary since the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated takes place Tuesday, and coinciding with that is the release of this incredible footage.
Thousands of tourists, and survivors, visit the camp in Poland which is now a World Heritage Site.
During World War II, Auschwitz was the largest Nazi established camp, with more that a million people dying there, most of them Jews, between 1940 and 1945.
Starting at the railway tracks the drone takes us through the entrance where you see the sign ‘Arbeit Macht Frei’ – “Work sets you free”.
Birkenau, which was erected in 1941 as a death camp, can be seen now in ruins with only the brick fireplaces and chimneys remaining. Haunting.

Good choice of words 'haunting.' Makes ya wonder why the glut of 'ghost hunter' shows don't go to a concentration camp.
WOW.
Now that would be spooky.
My son once wanted to camp overnight(surrepticiously, of course) at Gettysburg.
At dark, as I went to get the sleeping bags, and put a "Vehicle Disabled, Will Return" sign on my truck, I left him just below Little Round top.
When I got back to him, he was pale white, and said "Let's get the Hell out of here".
I imagine on of the death camps would be creepier.
I saw a video about ghosts and Gettysburg, it was one of two things, an excellent con job or something so real I don't know how long I could be there. Spooky
I only experienced that ghost thing at Vicksburg.
Scared me shitless, and I don't scare easy.
I'll see if I can locate that vid. If I do I'll post it
I saw it.
"Ghosts of Gettysburg", History Channel as I recall.
