Chancellor Angela Merkel has said Germany has an unending responsibility to remember the Nazis' war crimes, as she made her first trip while in office to the Auschwitz death camp in Poland.

Axar.az reports citing BBC.

The responsibility was "part of our national identity", she said.

Her visit comes amid a rise in German anti-Semitism and ahead of the 75th anniversary of the camp's liberation.

The Nazi regime murdered an estimated 1.1 million people, the vast majority of them Jewish, at Auschwitz-Birkenau.
