Gleis 17, Grunewald Bahnhof, Berlin











Abfahrt nach Riga, Lodz, Chelmno, Theresienstadt, Auschwitz: these were the main destinations of German-Jewish deportees transported from Grunewald during the "Final Solution". A very evocative memorial; deportees remain as sunken shadows, their historical journeys to the platform imprinted as a simulation on the concrete block.
