Sobibór Museum, Military museum in Sobibór, Poland

The Sobibór Museum occupies the grounds of a former death camp, featuring permanent exhibitions that document the systematic murder of 250,000 Jewish people.

The museum stands where Nazi forces operated an extermination facility from 1942 to 1943 as part of Operation Reinhardt during World War II.

Exhibitions within the museum display personal items recovered through archaeological excavations, representing the lives of Jewish communities from multiple European countries.

Visitors can follow the Trail of Memory from the museum building to the former railway station, examining historical artifacts and memorial installations.

Archaeological research at the site uncovered a 10-meter escape tunnel, constructed by prisoners who attempted to flee the camp's confines.
