In 2005, rinneadh comóradh ar 60 bliain ó shaoradh Champa Auschwitz. An bhliain sin, d’ainmnigh rún de chuid na Náisiún Aontaithe an 27 Eanáir mar Lá Idirnáisiúnta Cuimhneacháin bliantúil i gcuimhne ar íospartaigh an Uileloiscthe. Tagann an focal ‘Holocaust’, nó Uileloscadh, ón nGréigis, agus ciallaíonn sé ‘íobairt le tine’. Úsáidtear é chun cur síos a dhéanamh ar an ngéarleanúint agus ollmharú a rinne réimeas na Naitsithe agus a gcomhghuaillithe ar 6 mhilliún Giúdach san Eoraip. Idir 1933 agus 1945, dhírigh réimeas na Naitsithe agus a gcomhghuaillithe ar ghrúpaí eile chomh maith, mar shampla, muintir na Romach, daoine faoi mhíchumas, daoine Slavacha, mar aon le homaighnéasaigh, agus daoine ó ghrúpaí áirithe reiligiúnacha agus polaitiúla.

In September 1940, in annexed Alsace, close to the village of Natzwiller (called Natzweiler in German), the Nazis discovered a vein of pink granite. In March 1941, Himmler, head of the SS, ordered that a concentration camp be built to exploit the granite for the major construction projects of the Reich. On 1st May 1941, at the place known as “Struthof”, Konzentrationslager Natzweiler was officially opened. From 1941 to 1945, 52,000 prisoners, of more than 30 different nationalities, were sent to Natzweiler and its subcamps. 35,000 prisoners did not go through the main camp. Around 17,000 prisoners died in the nebulous Natzweiler system, including 3,000 at the main camp. This infoclip illustrates the Struthof”, Konzentrationslager Natzweiler (Memorial).

The Memorial and Museum Auschwitz-Birkenau is a former German Nazi concentration and extermination camp. The camp was established by Germans in 1940, in the suburbs of Oswiecim. Auschwitz became the largest of the German Nazi concentration camps and extermination centers where over 1.1 million men, women and children lost their lives. The United Nations General Assembly designated January 27—the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau—as International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
