Umschlagplatz in Warsaw ghetto, Holocaust memorial square in Śródmieście, Poland

The white monument on Stawki Street features a four-meter wall with a black strip and contains 400 engraved Polish and Jewish names.

Between 1942 and 1943, over 300,000 Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto were gathered at this location before deportation to the Treblinka death camp.

The memorial includes inscriptions in four languages and incorporates traditional Jewish symbolism through its design elements and religious references.

The monument stands at the intersection of Stawki and Karmelicka Streets, forming part of the Memorial Route of Jewish Martyrdom and Struggle.

A tree that grew spontaneously behind the monument after World War II is visible through one of the gates, representing life continuing after tragedy.
