Существование города восходит по крайней мере к 12-ому веку. После раздела Польши в 1772 году, город был присоединен к Австрийской империи Габсбургов, вернувшись к польской власти только после окончания Первой мировой войны. В течение этого времени, Освенцим стал промышленным центром и важным железнодорожным узлом. Еврейское население в 1921 году составляло 4950 человек. Накануне Второй мировой войны насчитывалось около 8000 евреев в городе, более половины всего населения. Освенцим был оккупирован сразу в начале Второй мировой войны. К октябрю 1939 года, он был присоединён к территории Третьего Рейха.

Questo video scaricabile contiene spezzoni delle testimonianze di sopravvissuti ebrei nati e cresciuti nella città polacca di Oświęcim, dove i nazisti tedeschi crearono l’infame sistema dei campi di Auschwitz.
L'esistenza della città risale al XII secolo. Dopo la spartizione della Polonia nel 1772, la città fu annessa all'impero asburgico austriaco, tornando al governo polacco solo dopo la prima guerra mondiale. Durante quel periodo, Oświęcim divenne un centro industriale e un importante nodo ferroviario. Popolazione ebraica nel 1921: 4.950. Alla vigilia della seconda guerra mondiale c'erano circa 8.000 ebrei in città, oltre metà della popolazione. Oświęcim fu occupata subito dopo l'inizio della seconda guerra mondiale. Nell'ottobre 1939 fu annessa Grande Germania.
Located northwest of Drohobycz in the Lwów voivoship in Poland (after the war Drogobych, Ukraine), the Bronica Forest was the site of massacres of the local Jewish population by the Nazis in 1942 -1943. The Jews were taken from the Drohobycz ghetto to the Bronica forest to be killed until the closing of the ghetto in June 1943.
Nearly 11,000 Jews were killed on that site, including Al’fred Shraer’s mother and maternal grandfather. He speaks in Ukrainian about the history of the monument standing on the site and explains how the executions took place.

Tento strihový film, ktorý si môžete stiahnuť do svojho počítača, obsahuje úryvky zo svedectiev pamätníkov holokaustu z archívu vizuálnej histórie USC Shoah Foundation. Všetci sa narodili v poľskom meste Osvienčim (Oświeçim), ktoré je dnes, žiaľ, známe predovšetkým kvôli systému koncentračných táborov s názvom Auschwitz, ktorý v meste a okolí vybudovala nemecká nacistická okupačná správa.
História mesta siaha najmenej do 12. storočia. Po prvom delení Poľska v roku 1772 bolo mesto pripojené k habsburskému Rakúsku, k poľskej správe sa vrátilo až po skončení prvej svetovej vojny. Medzitým sa Osvienčim stal priemyselným centrom a dôležitou železničnou križovatkou. V roku 1921 malo mesto 4 950 židovských obyvateľov. V predvečer druhej svetovej vojny žilo v Osvienčime 8 000 židov, viac ako polovica populácie mesta. V októbri 1939 bolo mesto pripojené k Veľkonemeckej ríši.
