Auschwitz Concentration Camp

The former Nazi Germany concentration camp stands as a museum to remember this dark chapter in European history.

Bare-Chested George Washington

Perhaps the most scandalous statue of America's first president.

Berlin, Germany

Stolpersteine Holocaust Memorials

Tiny memorials honor individual victims of the Holocaust.

Animatronic LBJ tells stories and makes jokes

Austin, Texas

Uncommon Objects

One part antique store, one part curiosities hodge-podge.

The bus platforms that are still in use.
