Tokom prvih pet meseci gradnje niklo je pet velikih Jugoslovenskih paviljona, centralna kula i četiri međunarodna: italijanski, mađarski, rumunski i čehoslovački, kao i nekoliko privatnih Paviljon nemačkog Rajha je izgrađen 1939. godine i odmah je posla mesto jačanja tada izuzeteno dobrih nemačko-jugoslovenskih poslovnih veza. Na sajmištu su Izlagana su dostignuća domaće tekstilne, stolarske i metalske industrije, zatim poljoprivrede, voćarstva i vinogradarstva. Tu su, pored redovnih velikih prolećnih i jesenjih sajmova, organizovani i sajmovi posebnih grana privrede, kao i razne manifestacije: izložbe, koncerti, kongresi. Zbog blizine centra grada, kao i sadržaja koje je nudilo Sajmište je ubrzo postalo popularno odredište Beograđana. Ta uloga se vrlo brzo drastično izmenila, dolaskom nemačke okupacione uprave. Ovaj prostor je odmah pretvoren u glavni logor najpre za uništenje srpskih i jugoslovenskih Jevreja. Njih oko 7000 stradalo je u ovom logoru do proleća 1942. godine, nakon čega je Srbija je proglašena za „Judenrein“ – očišćenu od Jevreja – a Sajmište je pretvoreno u Anhaltelager, prihvatni logor za političke zatvorenike, zarobljene partizane i prinudne radnike. Od 1941. do 1944. godine, u koncentracionom logoru na Sajmištu u Beogradu stradalo blizu 20.000 ljudi. Pored broja ubijenih, u jezovitom sećanju ostaje i način na koji su oni lišavani života, „usavršen“ upravo na Sajmištu. Bio je to poznati kamion– dušegupka, vozilo čiji su se izduvni gasovi vraćali u tovarni odeljak i gušili logoraše koji su u njemu navodno prevoženi na neko drugo mesto. Deo logoraša stradao je i od posledica loših uslova u logoru, od gladi i bolesti ili je bio ubijen od strane stražara i pripadnika logorske uprave. Preživeli su bili transportovani u radne logore u Nemačkoj i Norveškoj i gde ih je čekala raznolika, najčešće ne tako svetla sudbina. U ovom radu pokušali smo da prikažemo kako je sajmište od popularnog mesta za razonodu postalo mesto stradanja i patnje brojnih Jevreja, Srba i Roma tokom Drugog svetskog rata. Abstract: When the foundation stone of the Belgrade Fair was laid in the spring of 1937, it was planned that it would become a modern exhibition fair space, like others in Europe at the time, and a kind of mirror of the Yugoslav economy and culture. The five Yugoslav pavilions were the first to be built, followed by the Central Tower, Italian, Romanian, Czechoslovakian as well as several private ones. The Pavilion of the German Reich was built in 1939 and immediately became a place to strengthen the exceptionally good German-Yugoslav business ties. The products of the domestic textile, carpentry and metal industry, as well as agricultural products were exhibited here. In addition to regular big spring and autumn fairs, fairs of special branches of the economy were also organized here, as well as various events: exhibitions, concerts, congresses. Because of the content it offered and the fact that it was close to the center, the Belgrade Fair soon became a very popular destination for the citizens. With the arrival of the German occupation administration, the role of the Old Fairground changed drastically. This area was immediately turned into the main concentration camp primarily for the extermination of Serbian and Yugoslav Jews. About 7,000 of them perished in this camp until the spring of 1942, after which Serbia was declared “Judenrein” - cleansed of Jews - and the Fairground was turned into Anhaltelager, a reception camp for political prisoners, captured partisans and forced laborers. From 1941 to 1944, nearly 20,000 people perished in the concentration camp Old Fairgraound in Belgrade. Apart from the large number of those killed, the “murderous” manner in which they were deprived of their lives was especially memorable. It was a well-known lorry – „dusegupka“, in which inmates were suffocated with exhaust gases while they were allegedly being transported to another place. Some of the detainees died as a result of hunger and disease or were killed by guards and members of the camp administration. Those who survived were transported to labor camps in Germany and Norway where they also faced an uncertain fate. In this paper, we tried to show how the Old Fairground turned from a popular place for entertainment into a place of death and suffering of numerous Jews, Serbs and Roma during the Second World War.
