@ailincai_aurora Thank you for following and remembering with us. Auschwitz is a place that shows where hatred, antisemitism, and contempt for a fellow man led people decades ago. It is also a place where we should reflect on our individual and collective responsibility for the world we live in. Use & share our online materials about the history of Auschwitz: 🔹e-lessons: https://t.co/lSnYqRI0dY 🔹podcast: https://t.co/s6HUh1giCV We also recommend our new educational tool - online live guided tours: https://t.co/7f5FqLz6af It’s our duty not to forget. Please support @AuschwitzMuseum mission.

I am very happy to share a postcard from #Krynki where I spent many happy summer days. It took me many years to discover our Polish-Jewish history. Thank you @HumanityAction and @evzfoundation for the grant! #UntoldStories #PlacesOfMemory https://t.co/zmviaN8rx2

A statue remembering Irena Sender, Polish health worker who during WW2 helped save Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto, has been unveiled in Newark. Newark has particular importance to the Polish community in UK, being home to many PL war graves #Polishhistory #PLacesofmemory

The Modlin Fortress is also a site which saw Polish armed action during the January Uprising of 1863 and the Battle of Modlin (part of the September Campaign of 1939). Thus it's a site of memory for numerous Polish battles for freedom and independence. #PLacesofMemory

German's razed the capital to the ground following the Uprising. In 1945 ruins of the old city were formed into a mound. The 'PW' monument, designed by Uprising veteran Eugeniusz Ajewski was errected in 1998. In 2004 it was officially named Warsaw Uprising Mound #PLacesofmemory

#OTD:1st Sept '39, at 4:48am, shots were fired at the Polish Military stationed at Westerplatte, marking Germany's invasion of Poland, and the start of #WW2. Today Westerplatte stands as a memorial site to all who gave their lives in the cause of freedom #PLacesofmemory #80WW2
