Many journeys began in these cattle cars. Journeys with a destination unknown to the passengers. This, right here, is The Cattle Car – Memorial to the Deportees. It’s a poignant reminder of the horrors faced by millions during the Holocaust. The cattle car you see before you is an original. It was used by the Nazis to transport Jews to concentration and extermination camps across Europe. The car was later given to Yad Vashem by Polish authorities. Imagine the fear, the uncertainty, the despair that filled this very space. The cattle car now sits on a severed railroad track, suspended over the hillside. It’s a haunting image that symbolizes the journey towards annihilation. Though it represents such darkness, it also faces the hills of Jerusalem. A symbol of hope and the resilience of the Jewish people. The State of Israel and Jerusalem stand as a testament to their enduring spirit.
