Lost Transport in Tröbitz

On 10 April 1945, a final train transport of Jewish prisoners left Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. In fourteen days the train traveled first in the direction of Hamburg and then straight through devastated Berlin to finally strand near the village of Tröbitz. Along the way and in the first weeks after arrival, of the 2,500 occupants, about 500 would die, many due to typhus.
