KL Majdanek - evacuation of the camp

On July 22, 1944, the last group of prisoners (about 800), along with an SS escort, joined a group of about 200 prisoners from the sub-camp at Linden Street. A column of about 1,000 prisoners was directed towards Cielmów and then transported to Auschwitz by trains. 38 prisoners managed to escape from this group, and about 120 died during the last march from Majdanek.
