... and oppressive at the same time... as I walked around, the noise of the current military training area of the local barracks rang out in the background... machine gun fire... grenade explosions...

Hiking

At the beginning of 1947, by order of the British military government, the construction of a central memorial, a 24 m high obelisk and a 50 m long wall of inscriptions began. There are several inscriptions on it that remember the victims of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in different languages. The official commemorations to commemorate the liberation of the concentration camp by British troops on April 15, 1945 and the victims of this concentration camp take place here every year.
