.... Speaking at the Jewish Community Centre in Krakow before the [Auschwitz] memorial, King Charles warned of the risks of allowing evil to flourish.
On the eve of the war 56,000 Jews lived in Krakow, but when Nazi Germany was defeated only about 4000 Jews remained in the city. The community centre now has 1000 Jewish members including 58 Holocaust survivors, and is the heart of the city’s growing Jewish community.
“It is a moment when we recall the depths to which humanity can sink when evil is allowed to flourish, ignored for too long by the world,” he said.
