I am seeking a detailed map (preferably online) of the #WarsawUprising, focusing on the Old Town, noting unit HQs, hospitals, kitchens, barricades, and German advances. I have a few maps, but not detailed enough for what I have in mind. Research for a possible historical #boardgame project.

2/2

…a powerful reminder of what is at stake.

So much history we need to learn from, so that we can stand in solidarity for a better future.🕊️

Rocznica wybuchu Powstania Warszawskiego 1 sierpnia 1944 roku, o godz. 17.00 (określonej kryptonimem „W”, jak Wolność), wybuchło Powstanie Warszawskie. Było największym tego typu aktem oporu w okupowanej przez hitlerowców Europie. #PreczZFaszyzmem #WarsawUprising #History #Antifascism

unspeakable atrocities, first in the extermination camps for Jews from 1940-42, and innumerable #WarCrimes, 2 examples:

#Belarus:
"The special unit therefore not only fought against partisans, but also 👉killed around 30,000 Russian farmers and Jews. A large number of villages were burned to the ground.👈"

#Poland
"The suppression of the #WarsawUprising cost the lives of a further 30,000 partisans, men, women and children from August 4 to mid-October @dedicto @VATVSLPR @c @GottaLaff

"Looks like they underestimated the spirit of the people. Bullets can’t silence the will to survive! #WarsawUprising #NotGoingQuietly"

The Warsaw Uprisings: 1943–1944: Rare Photographs From Wartime Archives by Ian Baxter, 2021

The first Warsaw Ghetto Uprising began in April 1943. Although this was quelled at devastating cost to the Jewish community, resistance continued until the summer of 1944. By this time the Red Army was closing on the city and with liberation apparently imminent the 40,000 resistance fighters of the Polish Home Army launched a second uprising.
