One of four Nazi-Germany secret extermination camps located in the General Government. More than two million Jews turned into Ashes in that camps. The Pavilion with excellent exhibition inside is free of charge, outside the reconstruction of corridor leading to crematorium. Take about one hour for sightseeing. Warto Very sad but important historical monument and museum of how Germans (national socialists = nazi) prototyped methods of mass murder of Poles and Jews (various nationalities mostly Polish Jews but also Czech, Austrian, even German) later implemented in their other German Nazi Death Camps located in occupied Poland during 2nd World War. These where German Nazi Death Camps, this needs clarification, Poland was first to resist this evil in 1939. Never again :-( This place is free to visit for everyone. Very moving. If one thinks that logistics was optimized, traces removed, even forest planted and in the meantime HALF MILLION completely innocent people killed in a matter of few moths. Good answer to question "how to remember things that vanished completely" Amazing place. The scale this monument is made in is unbelievable, there is a lot of symbolism involved and the museum is small but features so many stories. We took a guide, which I wouldn't do again but if you want to, the guides are alright as well. Like all these memorials they are never an easy place to visit but it's important to keep the history in the current consciousness. I had a very emotional visit to the Belzec death camp. Some of my family were murdered there, probably. I say probably because one of the things I found out from the historian there is that there is no list of the names of the victims. Only the names of the towns from which they came. Pięknie utrzymane miejsce w którym cofamy się pamięcią do naszych pomordowanych przodków i z całego świata podczas II wojny światowej. Very accessible, very sombre. Strongest memorial I ever visited. That dead field, path inside the memorial field build with stones of streets where transports came from, iron plate at the beginning of the path - the border between life and death is slightly unstable. It is hard to be there and it is hard to write about it. For those looking for Holocaust history, there are a few unique elements to this monument. Primarily the eerie walk through the monument resembling the walk down the himmelstrasse and the easy perception of the experience of getting off the train and going straight to the gas chamber. Also be sure to check out the info in the museum as well as the meditation room designed to resemble a gas chamber. Trzeba zobaczyć i poczuć...
