The museum of the World War II-era Nazi German Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp has launched its profile, “Auschwitz Memorial”, on the Facebook social networking website, a museum spokesman said Thursday.
“If, in keeping with our mission, we want to educate youngsters, to teach them to be responsible for the world they live in, we must use the modes of communication young people themselves use,” Auschwitz-Birkenau museum spokesman Pawel Sawicki told AFP.
“Our Facebook profile is addressed to those across the globe who want to learn the history of the camp and the actual situation of the museum, to discuss it or to pay homage to the victims of Auschwitz-Birkenau,” he added.
