Part 4/8:
Prisoners sent to Treblinka faced immediate and harrowing conditions upon arrival. After disembarking from trains in a secluded area, they were subjected to brutal treatment, often beaten and whipped to hasten their undressing process before entering the gas chambers. Victims were falsely informed that they were heading for de-lousing, while in reality, they were escorted to their deaths.
The gas chambers were a horrific endpoint, camouflaged from the outside world. As they walked through a path nicknamed "the road to heaven," many endured violent pushes and threats, only to suffer a most gruesome end within minutes of their arrival.
