Hiking

A cruel memorial of past but fortunately not forgotten times. Let it never happen again.

Hiking

The peace in this place deceives because what happened here, we would not like to imagine. The whole thing is really difficult but worth a visit. You must never close your eyes

Hiking

In the left wing of the gatehouse with the blinded windows were the dreaded cells of the "bunker." This was the name of the camp prison, which was always fully occupied from February 1938 to the end: 26 cells to the left and right of the narrow aisle, each 2.05 m long and 1.38 m wide, separately heatable and darkened, with foldable platform and steel door.
