2019-5-16 to 17 Warsaw, Poland

In 1915 during the First World War, the Germans captured Warsaw. However, in 1918 Poland became an independent nation again and Warsaw was made it's capital.

In 1920 the Battle of Warsaw was fought between the Poles and the Communist Russians east of the city. Also in 1920, the Polish Army Museum was founded. Afterward, Warsaw continued to flourish.

However, in September 1939 the Germans invaded Poland. They captured it on 27 September. At that time about 1/3 of the population of Warsaw were Jews (about 380,000 people). From October 1940 the Germans herded Jews from Warsaw and the surrounding area into a ghetto. In 1942 the Germans began deporting Jews from the ghetto to concentration camps.

Later, on 1 August 1944, the people of Warsaw rose in rebellion unsuccessfully. However, on 17 September 1945, the Russians captured Warsaw.

At the end of the Second World War Warsaw was left devastated. Most of its buildings were destroyed. However, it was slowly rebuilt.

Warsaw is a very beautiful city full of history and beautiful buildings.
