Polskie Radio: Auschwitz Commandant’s Former House To Open To Visitors

Body

“A house once owned by Rudolf Höss, the notorious commandant of the Nazi German Auschwitz concentration camp, has been purchased by the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), a US-based non-governmental organisation, and will soon open to visitors. Located at 88 Legionów Street in the southern Polish city of Oświęcim, the house sits near the former camp’s perimeter fence. The property became the focus of public attention after last year’s release of The Zone of Interest, a British-Polish-American film that depicted the domestic life of Höss and his family living in the shadow of Auschwitz from 1941 to 1944.”
