Summary

Description
Polski: Drut kolczasty w pobliżu wejścia do niemieckiego obozu koncentracyjnego Auschwitz I. Zdjęcie wykonane na zewnątrz obozu.
English: Barbed wire perimeter fencing near by the entrance to the German death camp Auschwitz I in Poland. Note the electrical insulators on the concrete fence-posts. The barbed wire was electrified with lethal voltages, to kill any escapers. Additionally, the top of the fencing is deliberately designed to slope inwards thereby making it more difficult to climb over, even without electrical current running through it. The view is taken from the outside, looking into the camp. In addition to the 2 electrified fences there is a third "dead-line" fence just beyond, visible in the middle distance. Any prisoner stepping over the low third fence would immediately be shot dead without warning by perimeter guards.
Deutsch: Stacheldraht-Umzäunung in der Nähe der Einfahrt in das Konzentrationslager Auschwitz I. Bemerkenswert sind die elektrischen Isolatoren an den Zaunpfosten aus Beton. Der Stacheldraht wurde unter Strom gesetzt um jegliche Fluchtversuche zu unterbinden. Das Foto ist von außen, mit Blickrichtung in das Lager aufgenommen. Zusätzlich zu den 2 Elektrozäune, ist im hinteren Bereich noch ein dritter, niedrigerer Zaun sichtbar.
