Located in Poland, Auschwitz remains the largest concentration death camp of its kind ever made in wartime. This is camp I, where the final solution to the Jewish question was concluded. Camp 2 is where mass killings took place soon after. These fenced areas were patrolled by the SS. POW's would be shot if they dared to venture too close to the fence. Those that did, and touched the fences were electrocuted to death. In total some 400+ people escaped the camp.
