PLASZOW CONCENTRATION CAMP TODAY

I’ve visited Krakow and Plaszow in May 2018. The former labor and concentration camp became well-known due to “Schindler’s list” movie. In this detailed material, I would like to thoroughly describe an extensive walking tour with the history of each of more than 20 sites on the territory of Plaszow, with my 100+ photos and personal account. Main gate, SS-strasse, Grey House, Liban quarry, Amon Goeth’s villa, Hujeva Gorka etc.

Thank you for your feedback. My next article will be devoted to the Krakow ghetto sites, written in the same detailed manner.

“Monument against Fascism” is an incorrect translation for "Pomnik Ofiar Faszyzmu" = Memorial for the victims of Fascism.
Same is valid for "In memory of the martyrs killed during the German genocide of 1943-1945" for the Polish original "W hołdzie męczennikom pomordowanym przez hitlerowskich ludobójców w latach 1943–1945".
"Hitlerowcy" and "hitlerowskich" is usually translated with "Nazi" and not "German".

"and the new owner initiated a full-fledged renovation of the Amon Goeth villa, which was completed in 2017."
Is it known of he also initiated the modification on the front-side of the house? In the old photos it there was no stairway nor door there.
