The Little Known Destructive WWII Experiment | The Bombing of Frampol

In Frampol, a small town in Poland, town planning created a uniquely beautiful space for its residents to live in. What its designers could never have known was that it would create chaos and destruction, consigning the entire town to destruction centuries late. With its unique grid-pattern radiating from the market square, Frampol resembled a large bullseye when viewed from the air. Though without any military value whatsoever, that alone sealed the towns fate. When The Second World War broke out and fighting swept over the country, that planned town centre made the defenceless town the perfect experiment for Luftwaffe bombers looking to test their deadly technology. This is the story of a small and unsuspecting town meeting ultimate destruction at the hands of an uncaring, calculating, Nazi War Machine. Prefer to listen on the go?
