"Lublin. Memory of the Holocaust" Memory Trail is designed by the "Grodzka Gate – NN Theatre" Centre and prepared for the 75th anniversary of the commencement of Operation Reinhardt and the Liquidation of the Podzamcze Getto in Lublin.

This reconstruction of a Lublin Union period map of Lublin was made possible within an interdisciplinary project based on the expertise of Lublin researchers. Based on research documentation and scientific studies, the experts have taken on creating a graphic representation of the buildings, water network, and the layout of roads and plots of land within the city.
Bramowa Street was originally named Krakowska Street - already in the 16th century. Afterwards, the main route behind the Krakowska Gate (now Krakowskie Przedmieście) was given that name and the street leading to the Market Square was named Przyrynek. The street was given its current name in the 19th century. The most important structure here is the Krakowska Gate, which marks the end of the street. It was constructed after the Tatar invasion in 1341 as part of the city's defensive walls.
The Wolności Square (formerly known as the Bernardyński Square) is located in the center of Lublin, at the intersection of Narutowicza and Bernardyńska Streets. It was established at the junction of the former Kraków and Ruthenian routes, in the vicinity of the Bernardine church and monastery. In the 1820s, after some maintenance work in the former church cemetery and in the courtyard of the Tarłów Palace, a market square was created at the site of the present-day Wolności Square. The water tower was its most famous element; it was part of Adolf Weisblat's waterworks. The tower, built with machine-made bricks, had a Gothic form. It was damaged in the battles for Lublin in 1944. After the war the building was demolished.
In the second half of the 19th century, the construction of the Nadwiślańska railway line required transportation changes in Lublin. In 1876, a road was marked out, connecting Śródmieście with the railway station, which was located on the outskirts of the Piaski suburbs. The route ran from the bridge over Bystrzyca (former Bychawski Route) to the newly built railway station. Consequently, Lublin gained new transit possibilities and the Vistula Railway line, opened in 1887, revived the Piaski suburb giving the new street, called Foksal, (Russian: Bokzal - railway station) an urban character.
Szeroka Street, also known as the Jewish Street, ran across the site of today's Castle Square, from Kowalska Street to Ruska Street. Szeroka Street was the center of the former Podzamcze Jewish district. It was probably mapped out already before 1564. Its fully brick-built architecture dates to the end of the 18th century. At the turn of the 20th century, the street already included two and three story tenement houses which were tall buildings for this part of the city. It was one of the few paved streets in the Jewish quarter.
