This activity teaches students about considering personal experiences of those who arrived on the ramp at Auschwitz – Birkenau. They will explore images from the Auschwitz album, showing the arrival of Hungarian Jewish men, women and children in 1944, as well as listen to survivors who endured a similar process.

Scholars will analyze photographs as a primary source, learn how testimony can be used to analyze other primary sources and will be introduced to the Auschwitz album and its historical context.
