Three men have been jailed for stealing the notorious "Arbeit Macht Frei" (Work Sets You Free) sign from the Auschwitz memorial site last year.

Their sentences ranged from six months to two-and-a-half years.

The court in Krakow said the men confessed to the theft, which meant the case did not have to go to trial.
