Recruitment continues
The volunteering program ‘Revealing Details’ is focused on organizing selected landscape features in the Memorial site. The first phase of our project includes the Funeral Home ruins at the Jewish cemetery of the Kraków community. At present, beside the fragments of headstones, this is the largest complex of architectural relics in the Memorial site. Using precise tools, we will remove lichens from concrete relics of the building, and dispose of waste from that site.
In a later phase, our efforts will focus on the relics of camp kitchen and barrack no. 14 – the internal camp jail known as Kranzówka.
