Treblinka Museum

Dense forest, cobblestone roads. A secluded setting for mass murder.
We didn't really need to see a camp. We really didn't need to see memorials. We really didn't need to see tour guides or tourists
As we entered the small Museum and paid an entry fee we really didn't need to see the model of the Treblinka II camp. We really didn't need to see the old Jewish grave headstones on display. Those were used by the Poles and the Nazis as road making implements. Why not, they were strong granite and other rock materials, they cannot be wasted on a bunch of old dead Jews.
I really didn't need to see any more. I was certainly never going to sign the visitors log inside the Museum where Sol signed on behalf of his father, who was the sole survivor of Treblinka I known as the "pits".
