22 April 1980 | Polish man, Jan Liwacz, passed away. A blacksmith.
In Auschwitz from 20 June 1940.
No. 1010
Liberated in Ebensee.
He supervised the creation of the 'Arbeit macht frei' sign, placed over the main camp gate.
@auschwitzmuseum A photographer I know photographed the gate from the inside (rather than the more usual outside) as a reminder that some people did leave alive.
