It has been 78 years since the Soviet Army liberated Auschwitz, the largest Nazi concentration complex.
First established in 1940, Auschwitz had a concentration camp, large gas chambers, and crematoria.
More than 1.1 million people were murdered at Auschwitz, including nearly one million Jews.
In just five years, over one million people were murdered at Auschwitz, the largest and deadliest Nazi concentration camp.
The terror of Auschwitz finally subsided on January 27, 1945, when the Soviet Army liberated the remaining 7,000 prisoners from the camps.
