Warsaw

London – Lambeth – Imperial War Museum (Warsaw Uprising Graves)

Returning to my little theme of the wonderful on-line photo collection of the Imperial War Museum….

This is quite a raw photo, showing a little girl in what was likely late 1944 and she’s passing by a number of graves. There were hundreds of these plots of graves in Warsaw as people didn’t know what to do with the number of dead. It was only after the end of the Second World War that they were mostly exhumed and moved to the Warsaw Insurgents Cemetery.
