Things to do in Warsaw Ghetto
Warsaw Ghetto was the largest of the Nazi ghettos during World War II. It was founded in November 1940 by the German authorities within the new General Government territory of occupied Poland. From the Warsaw Ghetto, Jews were deported to Nazi concentration camps and mass-killing centers.
The ghetto was demolished by the Germans in May 1943 after the Warsaw Ghetto Uprisings which had temporarily stopped the deportations. The total death toll among the prisoners of the Ghetto is estimated to be at least 300,000 killed by bullet or gas, plus 92,000 victims of starvation and related diseases, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and the casualties of the final destruction of the Ghetto.
