Auschwitz Memorial urges visitors to show respect and avoid tasteless behavior.

TL;DR Summary
The Auschwitz Memorial Museum has issued a reminder on how to behave when visiting the site after a viral photo showed someone posing for a picture on the railroad tracks, which were used to transport Jewish people to the site during the Holocaust. The museum has reminded visitors to respect the memory of the over 1 million people who were murdered at the former concentration camp. This is not the first time the museum has had to remind people about their behavior at the site. Earlier this month, WWE received backlash for using an image of Auschwitz during a promo for its flagship event, WrestleMania.
