Millions of people, most of them Jews (\u017bydzi<\/strong>), were killed at the Nazi death camp (Nazistowski ob\u00f3z zag\u0142ady<\/strong>) which has became a symbol of the horrors of the Holocaust and World War Two (Druga Wojna \u015awiatowa<\/strong>), which ravaged Europe. This day is\u00a0focused on commemorating victims, and talking about the dangers of anti-Semitism (antysemityzm<\/strong>), prejudice (uprzedzenie<\/strong>) and hatred toward other people (nienawi\u015b\u0107 do innych ludzi<\/strong>)<\/span>. Remembrance of the Holocaust teaches us all that humanity can survive unimaginable horrors. Some of these people survived…personal strength and the will to live carried Holocaust survivors on until their rescue at the end of the war.<\/p>\n

Today, wreath is laid at the monument to the Heroes of the Warsaw Ghetto (pomnik Bohater\u00f3w Getta Warszawskiego<\/strong>)<\/span>\u00a0in Warsaw, Poland.\u00a0Victims of the World War II Nazi German regime are honored \u00a0every year across the continent, gathering survivors and numerous government representatives paying their respects to the millions who lost their lives.<\/p>\n

On this annual day of commemoration, the UN urges countries to honor the Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism and to develop educational programs to help prevent future genocides.<\/p>\n

In Poland both state and local government institutions, universities, research institutes and schools are extensively involved in Holocaust commemoration. State and local authorities honour the victims of the Holocaust – with special ceremonies held on January 27th and on April 19th (to commemorate the heroic Warsaw Ghetto Uprising<\/strong>). Many towns and cities have erected monuments in remembrance of the annihilation of the Jews who had lived in these places before the war. Such monuments or commemorating plates can be found, among other places, in Warsaw (i.a. Umschlagplatz and the Mordechai Anielewicz Bunker), \u0141\u00f3dz, Krak\u00f3w, Kielce, Lublin, Zamo\u015b\u0107, Bia\u0142ystok, G\u00f3ra Kalwaria , Otwock, Tykocin, Wielkie Oczy, Chmielnik, P\u0142o\u0144sk, Szyd\u0142owiec and in Jedwabne, where a monument to the memory of the Jews murdered by their Polish neighbours in 1941 was placed in 2001.<\/p>\n

Let’s all remember, today is the day\u00a0people gather across the world to remember those who lost their lives.<\/p>\n
