I’ve mentioned the general prison cells at this Italian concentration camp, but there is also one room known as the ‘cella della morte‘ or the death cell. This room is where anyone expected to be executed within days would be put, often Jews but sometimes partisans or anyone else who had annoyed the Nazi regime.
Sometimes those placed in the cell here, which was in the area where I was standing to take the photo, found themselves sharing their space with dead bodies that were awaiting cremation. The crematorium ovens that had been installed here by the Nazis were just a few metres away.
