Since the beginning of the post-War period, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum has preserved a collection of about 2400 family photographs. Only a few years ago was it possible to determine that some of the people represented were Jews from the ghettos in Sosnowiec and Bedzin, most of whom died in KL Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1943.
