Treblinka Extermination Camp | Station # 4 on Exhibit Tour | Operation July 1942 to October 1943.

Treblinka was the second largest concentration camp in operation after Auschwitz. It was in a forest located about 50 miles north-east of Warsaw. Jews and Romani were slaughtered there between July 23rd 1942 and October 19th 1943. The estimated death count reached as high as 900,000 for Jews and 2000 for Romani people. As time went on the Nazis became more efficient at gassing and running the overall operation. More Jews were killed at Treblinka than at any other death camp except for Auschwitz. Unsuspecting victims would arrive at the train station that were specifically built to not cause any suspicion.
