Katy Perry Visits Auschwitz in Poland: ''My Heart Was Heavy Today''
Good for Katy Perryit's important that the next generation never forgets, either.
Having performed last night in Kraków, Poland, the pop star today visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum, site of the notorious concentration camps Auschwitz I and Auschwitz II-Birkenau where over a million people were killed during the Holocaust.
"My heart was heavy today," Perry captioned a photo she took on the grounds, alongside which she also copied down the text from the main memorial plaque at the site:
"For ever let this place be a cry of despair and a warning to humanity, where the Nazi murdered about one and a half million men, women and children mainly Jews from various countries of Europe. Auschwitz - Birkenau 1940-1945.
