WWII - Holocaust - Belzec Extermination Camp

Quote:
Belzec, Polish spelling Bełżec, was the first of the Nazi German extermination camps created for implementing Operation Reinhard during the Holocaust. Operating in 1942, the camp was situated in occupied Poland about half a mile south of the local railroad station of Bełżec in the Lublin district of the General Government.

At least 434,500 Jews were killed at Bełżec, along with an unknown number of other Poles and Roma; only two Jews are known to have survived Bełżec: Rudolf Reder and Chaim Hirszman. The lack of survivors may be the reason why this camp is so little known despite its number of victims.

MODERN DAY PIX & FURTHER INFO

Quote:
Belzec was the first of the three Operation Reinhard extermination camps which were set up to carry out the Final Solution of the Jewish Question, which was planned at the Wannsee Conference on January 20, 1942. The other two Operation Reinhard camps were Sobibor and Treblinka. The Belzec camp was located just outside the village of Belzec, on the eastern border of German-occupied Poland.

The three Operation Reinhard camps were all located near a major Jewish ghetto. Belzec was between the Lublin and the Lvov ghettos. Treblinka was near the Warsaw ghetto and Sobibor was near the Lublin ghetto. All three were near the Bug river which was the eastern border of German-occupied Poland.

Jews from the ghettos of southern Poland, including Lublin and Lvov, were killed at Belzec in three gas chambers which were first put into operation on March 17, 1942. The Belzec death camp was only in existence for nine months, after which it was completely dismantled to destroy the evidence of the murder of 600,000 Jews who were killed in gas chambers. The bodies, which had been buried, were exhumed and burned on pyres before the camp was abandoned.

For many years Belzec was the most forgotten camp of the Holocaust. The memorial that now exists at the site of the camp was designed by Andrzej Solyga, Zdzislaw Pidek, and Marcin Roszczyk and opened in a solemn ceremony on June 3, 2004 as a joint project of the American Jewish Committee and the Council for the Protection of the Memory of Combat and Martyrdom in Warsaw. The complex consists of a memorial to the 600,000 victims who were murdered in the camp and a museum with an exhibition about the history of the Belzec death camp.

This huge field of randomly sized concrete rubble covers the entire camp area of Belzec, with the center path through the site being reminiscent of "Die Schleuse," (The Sluice) a camouflaged barbed wire path that led from the undressing and barber barracks straight to the gas chambers, which were also camouflaged with netting on raised poles.

I just like the fact they're from Peru! I have a thing about Peru which makes me biased! Lol. I have to mix my music up a lot otherwise I get fed up... It's like Opeth - they do my head in... You can listen to too much of the same style - it gives you brain freeze...

Re: WWII - Holocaust - Belzec Extermination Camp

Oooh - *apologises to blackroseimmortal!* The thing with all the melodic stuff is it all sounds the same - one band just melds into another and then you end up with 10 bands that you can't distinguish from one another... And they're all so...commercial. I don't know how these people that listen to melodic bm and only listen to that survive - it would drive me up the wall... And just to add, coz I can, death to Burzum...
