According to a widely respected article written in 1989 by Franciszek Piper, the Director of the Auschwitz Museum, about 1.3 million prisoners entered the Auschwitz complex of camps, and 200,000 left alive. However, this does not mean that they all survived, as many were transferred to other camps, where they perished. (Anne and Margot Frank are well known examples). Of the 1.1 million victims at Auschwitz, about 90% were Jews. Piper's estimate of the numbers is deliberately cautious, and most serious scholarly debate since 1989 has focused on the range 1.1.-1.5 million.
