Train Ride To Auschwitz

This video is an excellent reenactment of the average prisoner's arrival at Auschwitz-Birkenau, from the film The Last Train to Auschwitz. Rabbi Berkowitz went through about the same experience.

Common Treatment of Arrivals:

  • The separation of men and women- Women were often gassed on arrival
  • The yelling and beating of the prisoners
  • Packed tightly onto train car
  • Spoken to in one language, no matter if they could understand
