Division 77 - Memorial to the Deportees to Auschwitz III
Just one of more than a dozen incredibly powerful, striking and dramatic sculptures in divisions 77 and 96 memorializing those, mostly Jews, deported to the various Nazi death camps during the Second World War, most of whom never returned. Powerful, gripping and should be at the top of every traveler's must-see list in the cemetery.
