An abandoned inner courtyard among dilapidated buildings of the former Warsaw ghetto

An abandoned inner courtyard surrounded by dilapidated buildings in the former Warsaw ghetto area. The brick facades show bricked-up windows, peeling plaster, and graffiti. Debris and abandoned objects lie on the floor, partly covered with grass. This type of courtyard, once the beating heart of Jewish community life, today represents a space of desolation and memory. During the ghetto's existence, courtyards like this hosted clandestine trade, hid fugitives, and organized resistance against the Nazi occupation.
