Podcast: The City Behind the Wall | Episode 5: There Was a Wall in Warsaw

On the occasion of the 84th anniversary of the closing of the ghetto borders, we want to bring our listeners closer to the dramatic events related to the creation of the Warsaw Ghetto.

In this episode, you'll find testimonies from witnesses recounting the moments leading up to the ghetto's closure, the construction of the wall, and their feelings about this isolation. This episode also features contributions from researchers of the history of the ghetto and the Holocaust: Professor Katarzyna Person, Dr. Michał Grochowski, and Professor Justyna Kowalska-Leder. We hope this episode will leave listeners reflecting on contemporary awareness of these events and the importance of remembering the Warsaw Ghetto.

This episode was produced by Michał Kukawski. The podcast is also available on other streaming platforms.
