The State Museum at Majdanek was established in 1944 on the grounds of the German Nazi extermination and death camp. In 1941–1944 nearly 80 thousand people perished there, including mainly Jews, Poles, Belarusians, Ukrainians, and Russians.
Here you can find contents about the history of the camps, personal stories of deportees, and more information about the Museum collections.
