A new exhibition exploring a little known part of the Holocaust which saw tens of thousands of people die at the roadside as they were forcibly evacuated by the Nazis near the end of World War Two, is to open next week.

As the allies advanced near the end of the war, hundreds of thousands of prisoners who were still held by the Nazis were moved under heavy armed guard.

The evacuations became known as death marches by those who endured them as tens of thousands died while on the move, either from exhaustion or they were murdered by their Nazi guards during seemingly random massacres.
