Warsaw, Poland

April 19th, the 65th anniversary of the uprising in Warsaw Ghetto. Many people came to the place where the ghetto was located during the WW II. They brought flowers, mainly yellow daffodils and tulips, symbol of the fight.

This is the Umschlagplatz Monument - memorial of the 300.000 Warsaw Jews, who were sent to the Nazi gas chambers in Treblinka. The deportations began on July 22, 1942 - ended on September 12, 1942. On this place, where the railroad station was, they were put into cattle trains for their last journey. This stone monument resembling an open freight car was built in 1988.
