Special place with a special story. Intended as a temporary cemetery for those who died due to the flood disaster in 1953. The original cemetery was flooded at the time. That is why the deceased persons were first buried here. However, they were never moved after the village was rebuilt and now form a beautiful but especially special reminder of the disaster that occurred on the night of January 31 to February 1, 1953.
