Stamp of the Judenrat. Historic Relic from the Gross Rosen Concentration Camp, Dolnośląskie, 1940s
Judenrat stamp from the Gross Rosen labor and concentration camp, 1940's.
Specifications: Metal stamp with a wooden handle. Diameter 3.5 cm, height 11 cm. A star of David is in the center of the stamp, surrounded by the words "Gross Rosen Concentration Camp" in German.
Unique Features: The stamp is a historic relic from the labor and concentration camp established by the Nazis in Dolnośląskie, which was active between the years 1940-1945. Some 125,000 inmates passed through the camp, a third of whom died there and in the evacuation transports. The Jews were the largest group among the camp's inmates. They were initially brought there from the KZ Sachsenhausen, Dachau and Buchenwald camps. Later, Jewish prisoners were brought from Poland, Hungary, Belgium, France, Greece, Yugoslavia, Slovakia and Italy. The camp's inmates were sent to forced labor in subhuman conditions in the granite quarries and factories which fed the war industry. The camp's structure included many dozens of sub-camps, many of whose inmates were evacuated to the death marches prior to the camp's liberation by the Soviet army.
Condition: Very fine.
