Sobibór

When I was here in 2018 this was all construction site. Very glad the museum is open.

The distinction made here between Nazi policy and the German public is quite unusual for Polish installations. There are several mentions of the Trawniki men. I was impressed at the extent of the displays given to Dutch and French transit camps as well.

I’d assumed that with the museum renovation complete the entire site would be open. This morning I’d planned to walk the path in the middle of the photo here. Alas, this is not to be the case. When I asked the docent if I’d be able to walk through the site this summer she said no, originally everything had been scheduled to be completed by now, but currently she thinks perhaps it’ll be open next year.
