Celebrations for the Indipendence Day. Before the war the 60 % of the total population was jewish. There were 13 synagogues. After the war only 70 jews returned to the city. The last jew died in 2000. Today, the 40.000 residents city of Oswiecim is a economically depressed city living with the heavy memory of the atrocities committed inside the camps. In 1998 it received the title of Messenger of Peace by the UN Secretary General.
