A panoramic view of the memorial area of the Krakow-Plaszow concentration camp. In the foreground, the bilingual information sign welcomes visitors. In the background, on the hilltop, stands the monumental memorial with five sculpted figures. Between the two elements, the undulating terrain is dotted with stone blocks marking significant locations of the camp. The blue sky with white clouds overlooks this landscape laden with history, where between 1942 and 1945 over 25,000 people were imprisoned, mainly Jews from the Krakow ghetto.
