Un record del ghetto / The ghetto that remains

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Fotografia presa amb una càmera Rolleiflex Automat (RF 111A), fabricada el 1938; Ilford HP5+ 400 revelat amb HC110.

 

Aquest és el fragment més gros del antic mur del ghetto de Cracovia que sobreviu. Està ja a la part del bosc cap als turons que dominen la zona (i des d'on Oskar Schindler va veure la liquidació del ghetto).

 

Al barri de Podgórze, al sud del Vistula, és on es trobà l'autentic ghetto de Varsovia (1941-1943). Tot i que La llista de Schindler filmaren principalment a Kazimierz com a escenaris del ghetto, val a dir que es mostra com els jueus foren forçats a anar al sud del riu cap a dins el ghetto.

 

El gobernador nazi, Hans Frank, decidí que Kazimierz, el barri tradicional jueu, era massa a prop del centre de Cracovia, que havia de ser germanitzat. Per això es creà el ghetto més lluny. Actualment pocs detalls en queden del ghetto, però la majoria d'edificis són els mateixos.

=====================================

 

 

Picture taken with a Rolleiflex Automat camera (RF 111A), manufactured in 1938; Ilford HP5+ 400 film developed in HC110.

 

This is the longest remain of the Cracow ghetto wall, this one located towards the hill that dominates the area. It was from this hill that Oskar Schindler (in the movie but more or less also in reality) saw the liquidation of the ghetto.

 

In the neighborhood of Podgórze, south of the Vistula, is where the authentic Warsaw ghetto was located (1941-1943). Although Schindler's List was primarily filmed in Kazimierz as the ghetto's setting, it is worth noting that it shows how the Jews were forced south of the river into the ghetto.

 

The Nazi governor, Hans Frank, decided that Kazimierz, the traditional Jewish quarter, was too close to the center of Krakow, which had to be Germanized. That's why the ghetto was created further away. Today few details remain of the ghetto, but most of the buildings are the same.
