Way To Heaven

Way To Heaven
   German guards referred to the passage leading to the gas chambers at Treblinka as the “way to heaven” (Himmelstrasse). The passage to the gas chamber was lined by Schutzstaffel (SS) men with their dogs who, armed with whips and clubs, expedited the movement of the unsuspecting Jews to their deaths.
