1.95 Million Visitors to the Auschwitz Memorial and Museum in 2025
In 2025, 1.95 million people visited the site of the Auschwitz Memorial, which represents a 7% increase compared to the previous year.
About 23% of visitors originated from Poland. The subsequent largest groups were from the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Germany, the United States, France, the Czech Republic, Israel, and the Netherlands.
“At a time of simplification and superficial treatment of information, as well as growing disinformation, learning the history of Auschwitz with a guide is of particular importance. This form of visiting was chosen by 9 out of 10 visitors,” said the Museum’s Director, Dr. Piotr M. A. Cywiński.
Currently, 340 guides conduct tours at the Memorial in 20 languages.
“It is largely thanks to them that a visit to the authentic post-camp space becomes a place where memory is formed—memory that can influence our choices today,” added Deputy Director Andrzej Kacorzyk.
