The small fortress is a distinctive part of the city of Terezín and is located on the right bank of the Ohra. From its beginnings, it served primarily as a prison. It was probably the most famous and at the same time the saddest prison from 1940 to 1945, when it belonged to the Prague Gestapo.

The names of the concentration camps to which prisoners from the Small Fortress were deported are recorded on plaques here.

Small memorial in the complex itself. There is also something in the forecourt.
