Red brick Warsaw Ghetto Wall section, with bricks removed by museums in Houston, Melbourne, Jerusalem, 62 Zlota Street, Warsaw


Surviving section of red brick Warsaw Ghetto Wall behind a house at 62 Zlota Street. The wall, originally 3m high and topped by barbed wire, marked the border of the ghetto between November 15th 1940 and November 20th 1941. The Warsaw Ghetto was divided into a southern 'Small Ghetto' and a northern 'Large Ghetto'. Bricks here have been removed and re-located at various museums around the world. The Polish inscriptions here read: 'A brick from this place is located in the Holocaust Museum in Melbourne, Australia'; 'A brick from this place is in a museum in Houston'; 'A brick from this place is located in the Yad Vashem Museum in Jerusalem'.
