Guard's Tower Auschwitz Birkenau Camp II

This is the Guard Tower at the Concentration and Death Camp Auschwitz Birkenau Camp II. Behind the tower, there lies the electrified wire and then each brick tower beyond is the chimney from a different hut for prisoners - all that remains of many of the huts but still act as a testimony to the scale of this atrocity.
