Stop At: Treblinka Memorial, Treblinka Poland

Treblinka Concentration Camp is a death camp in Poland which was established by Germans in 1942 in the area of Treblinka village. It is located north-west of Warsaw in the Masovian Voivodeship. This camp is considered as a place where the number of killed prisoners is estimated between 700-900.000, what makes this camp the second most important German wartime extermination center, right after Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp. In 2006, there was founded Treblinka Museum of Struggle and Martyrdom which commemorates victims of this terrifying genocide.
The first camp which was built in the zone of Treblinka concentration camp was a forced-labour camp where prisoners were made to superhuman effort in extreme conditions. The second part of the camp was an extermination camp where people were being killed in six gas chambers between 1942-1943. Homicides were carried out as a part of the Operation Reinhard and the Final Solution. In 1943 prisoners decided to launch a revolt. In the consequence of those events, 200 inmates managed to escape, but only almost 100 of them survived the subsequent chase.
