The infamous Arbeit Macht Frei (Work Sets You Free) sign at the entrance to the Auschwitz Nazi death camp in Poland has been stolen, the BBC reports today.
The sign was taken from above the gate overnight. Police are looking for the culprits.
It is the first time the sign -- made by prisoners -- has been stolen since it was erected in the early 1940s.
More than a million Jews were murdered by the Nazis at Auschwitz during World War II.
The missing sign has been replaced by a replica.
