Radegast Bahnhof

 Radegast Bahnhof is one of the most important places in Łódź connected with the history of Litzmannstadt Ghetto. Since 1941 it was operating as the final station for the Jews deported from the Western Europe e.g. from Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Luxemburg, as well as for Gypsies from Burgenland. Since January 1942 transportations with the Jews directed to extermination camps in Chełmno on Ner and in Oświęcim - Brzezinka were leaving from there. Nowadays, the Radegast Bahnhof Annihilation Monument with a historical rail ramp is a very significant place, where past and present Łódź inhabitants and their children can pay homage to the victims of the Holocaust. The monument consist of the Deported, The Hall of Towns, and The Column of Memory. The memorial is constructed in such a way, that it allows the visitor to identify with the deported. A collection of 3,500 transport lists tells about the number of those sent to their deaths.
