	Umschlagplatz in the Warsaw Ghetto where Jews were assembled for deportation
		The Umschlagplatz was where the Jews had to assemble to board the trains which transported them to the death camp at Treblinka, beginning in July 1942.
		The Jewish Ghettos, which the Nazis established in all the major Jewish population centers of Poland, were part of the systematic plan to get rid of all the Jews in Europe, and were intended as a transitional measure.
		They were to report voluntarily to the Umschlagplatz (collection point) at the corner of Stawki and Dzika streets, near a railroad siding for the Ostbahn (Eastern Railroad), on which they would be "transported to the East" on crowded freight cars.
