This Polish Apartment Was Nearly Demolished During World War II
Take a look at this heartbreaking photo that was caused by the Second World War. This photo was taken at an apartment complex located at the corner of the streets Ratajczaka and Św. Marcin in Poznań, Poland. It was almost demolished by the Nazis back then. Over six million Polish people died during the period, about a fifth of the local population.
Decades Later, This Polish Apartment Complex Stands Tall
It has been over seventy years since the conclusion of the Second World War and the structure remains in its spot. If it weren’t for documentation, we would have not realized it was almost destroyed a long time ago. The Germans finally surrendered on May 8, 1945. People would rebuild and move on, but they would always remember the atrocities of the war.
