You should take the time to visit this place and pause for a moment!
GERMAN REICHENAU is one of the many places that were located in the death strip and were either razed after the expulsion of the inhabitants or, like the church here, simply blown up.

The rubble of the church remained in the cemetery after the demolition, and after many years, nature has done its work.

A few crosses and gravestones bear witness to the site...

Why this highlight?
Well, I think we shouldn't forget the fact that these places have disappeared.

"Disappeared Places" There are many photos and information here:

(Sometimes you just need a translation program - this is also very helpful with many captions: e.g.:
