On the grounds of the former deportation camp, two train wagons are on display, which were used to deport Jews to the extermination camps in Poland and elsewhere. At times, 75 people were crammed into one wagon and transported for days to the death camps.

It is advisable to visit the museum in advance, also for the kids. Then you know what you're looking at in the camp itself.
