I love nature. I love the peace and the tranquility that nature provides. On this day, a brief rain storm came and went. The birds were singing, and the sun was shining through the trees. The air was calm, and even though it was a small hike, I could just sit and take in the atmosphere. Late 1943, early 1944, that wasn’t the case for many Jews. This place in nature that suppose to be serene and peaceful, was a time of terror. This is the site were many, many Jews marched to their death. The mass graves in Tomasźow Mazowiecki do not have a memorial placed nor is there a commemorate marking. If a person was hiking through nature, taking in all its beauty, would not know this site exists.
