Muranow

The Muranow neighbourhood in Warsaw was once a flourishing and important center of Jewish life. During World War II the neighbourhood was turned into the Warsaw Ghetto. When the war ended, the neighbourhood was rebuilt with the rubble of its own destruction. Today, thousands of Poles live in the green and spacious Muranow, yet  its' dark past keeps haunting it. Polish residents claim that Jewish ghosts live in the neighbourhood. At night they shake off the dust and ashes that cover them, and wander the streets they once lived in. Other residents think the ghosts are a metaphor for the life, culture, and memories of the Jewish people buried beneath the ground.
