The group stops to look at a surviving building from the Warsaw ghetto.
History in brief
The burnt-out tenements at Waliców 10–14 are among the very few buildings left from the Warsaw ghetto, where the Germans confined some 400,000 Jews from 1940. The ghetto wall ran along this street.
The place today
The scarred shells stand opposite the new Browary Warszawskie development, a stark reminder among modern flats.
