Due to the beatings by the SS officers as they enter Majdanek concentration camp, the prisoners can only think of survival at that time --- this was to keep their mind off from escaping.

 

The Majdanek Monument

 

 

The mausoleum that protects a mountain of seven tons of human ashes that were scattered in the fields by the Nazis.  A message at the front of the memorial reminds us that, “Our destiny is a warning to you all.”

Something interesting happened during the closing ceremony at this Monument.  The dark clouds came very fast and soon there was a storm --- the closing ceremony was abruptly terminated!  See slideshow below!
