In the early stages of WW2 the Jews in nazi occupied europe were rounded up and forced into crowded ghettoes. When the decision was made to kill them all they were deported to extermination centres to be murdered. This image shows a crowded footbridge over Hohensteiner Straße (now Zgierska Street). The ghetto was sealed and no Jews were allowed out, so the bridge was needed to cross fromone part of the ghetto to another.
