Hello Friend Mesut,

Interesting photo, the appearance is that we have a lot of influence of Arab architecture in this construction. It also appears to be quite old.

The visit to the Auschwitz camp is really sad, we cannot imagine how far the human being is capable of reaching with such malice. It is a great reflection, so that history will never repeat itself.

greetings from Brazil
