Jews in Jewish District in Janow, Poland - Photo -1940

Nice photo depicting some Jews in Jewish district in Janow, Poland - 1940. In the photo we can see some elderly Jews talking with 2 girls and a younger man. We see that all the district is in ruins due to the destruction of the war. Soon after 1941, after the creating of the big ghetto of Czestochowa, all the Jews from Janow were transferred to that ghetto that was later liquidated and all the surviving Jews deported to the Treblinka extermination camp. On the reverse is written "Judenviertel in Janow. Okt 1940" or "Jewish district in Janow. October 1940".
