Auschwitz

O campo de concentração de Auschwitz, também KZ Auschwitz ou KL Auschwitz) foi uma rede de campos de concentração localizados no sul da Polônia operados pelo Terceiro Reich e colaboracionistas nas áreas polonesas anexadas pela Alemanha Nazista, maior símbolo do Holocausto perpetrado pelo nazismo durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. A partir de 1940, o governo de Adolf Hitler construiu vários campos de concentração e um campo de extermínio nesta área. A razão direta para sua construção foi o fato de que as prisões em massa de judeus, especialmente poloneses, por toda a Europa que ia sendo conquistada pelas tropas nazistas, excediam em grande número a capacidade das prisões convencionais até então existentes. Ele foi o maior dos campos de concentração nazistas, consistindo em Auschwitz I ; Auschwitz II–Birkenau, Auschwitz III–Monowitz, e mais 45 campos satélites.
