Ghetto Zitadelle Dęblin:
In 1940 - according to different sources, in the first half of a year or in Novemer - the Nazis established ghetto in Dęblin, located in the area of streets: Bankowa, Okólna, Senatorska, Wiatraczna and Niedbała. Except from Jewish dwellers of Dęblin, there were also kept people displaced from local towns. Ghetto had no fence what made possible the trade with Poles - although there was a prohibition of leaving the ghetto. Gradually, the repressions increased. About 1.000 people were forced to do slavish works for an occupant in labour camps in Dęblin. At the turn of 1941 and 1942, the German made all Jews to give them fur coats and other warm clothes. At the same time, in the ghetto came an outbreak of typhus epidemic which claimed many victims.
Liquidation of ghetto in Dęblin had three stages. The first 'action' happend on 6th May 1942. In the morining there were gathered 2 500 Jews. Victims were chosen on the basis of previously made list. The action lasted to an early evening. German military forcemen and Ukraininans subdued to them killed several dozen people. The corpses were first buried in a synagogue, then on the cemetery in Bobrowniki. After 6 p.m. , the Jews standing in a market were took to railway station where they were embarked in goods waggons and then transported to the concentration camp in Sobibór.
About 1000 people were left in the ghetto. On the following day, Jews from Ryki were deported. Discplaced people from Czechoslovakia were transported there a few days later. Conditions were very hard. Hunger made life a misery. According to the decision made by occupaying authoritis, every dweller had a work duty.
The final liquidation of a ghetto happend on 15th October 1942. The majority of its inhabitants were taken to gas chambers in Treblinka. About 100 people were murdered on the spot. Hundreds of chosen workers together with their families were taken to the labour camp at the airport which functioned to July 1944.
Am 15. September 1939 wurde der Ort im Rahmen des Polenfeldzugs der Wehrmacht besetzt. Während der Besetzung wurde in Dęblin 1941 bis 1943 das Kriegsgefangenenlager Stalag 307 betrieben, 1943 bis 1944 das Offizierslager Oflag 77. Auf dem Gebiet Irenas wurde Mitte 1940 ein jüdisches Ghetto eingerichtet, welches am 14. Oktober 1942 aufgelöst wurde. Am 25./26. Juli 1944 marschierte die Rote Armee in die Stadt ein. 1953 wurde der Name Dęblin auch für die Gemeinde Irena eingeführt.
Treblinka was an extermination camp, built by Nazi Germany in occupied Poland during World War II. It was located in a forest north-east of Warsaw, 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) south of the Treblinka train station in what is now the Masovian Voivodeship. The camp operated between 23 July 1942 and 19 October 1943 as part of Operation Reinhard, the deadliest phase of the Final Solution. During this time, it is estimated that between 700,000 and 900,000 Jews were killed in its gas chambers, along with 2,000 Romani people. More Jews were killed at Treblinka than at any other Nazi extermination camp apart from Auschwitz.
Managed by the German SS and Trawnikis (also known as Hiwi guards – the auxiliary police enlisted from Soviet POW camps to assist the Germans), the camp consisted of two separate units. Treblinka I was a forced-labour camp (Arbeitslager) whose prisoners worked in the gravel pit or irrigation area and in the forest, where they cut wood to fuel the crematoria. Between 1941 and 1944, more than half of its 20,000 inmates died from summary executions, hunger, disease and mistreatment.
The second camp, Treblinka II, was an extermination camp (Vernichtungslager). A small number of men who were not killed immediately upon arrival became its Jewish slave-labour units called Sonderkommandos, forced to bury the victims' bodies in mass graves. These bodies were exhumed in 1943 and cremated on large open-air pyres along with the bodies of new victims. Gassing operations at Treblinka II ended in October 1943 following a revolt by the Sonderkommandos in early August. Several SS Hiwi guards were killed and 200 prisoners escaped from the camp; almost a hundred survived the subsequent chase. The camp was dismantled ahead of the Soviet advance. A farmhouse for a watchman was built on the site and the ground ploughed over in an attempt to hide the evidence of genocide.
