The ceremony was attended by clergy and 18 former prisoners who attended the ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In front of the ruins of the crematorium, an instrument used in the mass extermination of the Jews, the kaddish and the mournful prayer &#8220;El male rachamim&#8221; were sounded. They were recited by the Chief Rabbi of Poland, Michael Schudrich. With the words of the prayer &#8220;Eternal Rest&#8221;, the souls of the victims were remembered by the chairman of the Polish Episcopal Conference&#8217;s committee for dialogue with Judaism, Archbishop Grzegorz Ry\u015b and the auxiliary bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Bielsko-\u017bywiec, Piotr Greger. Also, priest of the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church, Father Aleksander, also prayed for the victims.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the prayer, the participants of the ceremony laid candles at the ruins of Crematorium IV.
