Hi,



The original station was destroyed in 1944 when an ammunition train exploded due to the attack of a soviet bomber.

I don´t know if the ever left Belzec, but to me it looks as if they have just arrived. That is what I find strange!

Even in the early stages of Belzec (which was the testing ground of the Aktion Reinhardt camps) arrivals were not received at the station platform.

Upon arrival at Belzec station, the train stopped. There the train, which usually numbered between forty to sixty freight cars, was split into two or three sections; each was driven separately into the camp, because the absorption capacity of the camp was no more than twenty cars.

Hi,

like most villages around the Operation Reinhardt camps, almost nothing changed.
People didn't move after the war, and many witnesses are still around (some were recently interviewed by Father Desbois staff).

See You
