The tragedy of the Holocaust reached its most horrifying peak in the death camps of Auschwitz-Birkenau. What happened here can seem to students to be just numbers but faced with the reality preserved at the Camp the humanity of the victims becomes all too real. A school trip here is an incomparably moving and life changing experience.
