A Nazi death camp where over
one quarter of a million Jews were killed.

1:57:05
But in the revolt that day, over 300
of the 600 prisoners made it to freedom.

1:57:10
Something which had never happened before,
and would never happen again in World War 2.

1:57:15
Within days, SS-chief Himmler
ordered the camp closed,

1:57:18
dismantled and planted with pine trees.
1:57:22
In that forest now stands
this monument to the dead.

1:57:26
It is also a reminder
of the valiant fighters of Sobibor

1:57:30
who were among those who began to make
the idea a vow "never again" a reality.
