Congress Hall (Warsaw, Poland – August 2021)
It’s been 10 years since anyone has played at this venue in Warsaw. The facility has been under renovation for much longer than originally planned. A bankruptcy and cost overruns will keep the concert hall closed for at least another year. The building in the background is this one.

Grain Belt Beer sign next to Hennepin Avenue Bridge over the Mississippi River (August 2022)
This sign made it onto the National Register of Historic Places six years before this photo was taken.
Birkenau, Poland
Today’s photo is a rather grim one. These are the ruins of the gas chamber and crematorium at the Birkenau Concentration Camp (Auschwitz II). They were demolished in January 1945 by Nazis before retreating. A guard tower can be seen in the distance. Over a million people were killed here; more than 90% were Jewish.
Saint Mary’s Basilica (Krakow, Poland)
I believe the sign on the roof says something about it being restored in 1927. However, that’s strange because Wikipedia says the roof was replaced in 2003.
