Land of Os: Living in the Shadow of Auschwitz

Catholic pilgrims pray at a Way of the Cross procession during Easter at a holy site about 30 miles from Oswiecim. The late Pope John Paul II was a frequent pilgrim here in his younger days. Poland, which was ethnically diverse before WWII, is now about 95% Catholic, and likely the most religious country in Europe.
