Terezin - museum in concentration camp
|
|
Terezín was established at the end of the 18th century as a fortress; still surrounded by its massive ramparts, the town lies at the confluence of the rivers Labe (Elbe) and Ohøe (Eger).The Main and Lesser Fortresses at Terezín, although modern for their period, gradually became obsolete, and having lost their military function fell into disregard. Only in the relatively recent past has Terezín once again entered the world's public consciousness as a tragic symbol of the sufferings of the tens of thousands of innocent people who died here during the Nazi occupation of their homeland.
Location: |
The town lies 3km south of Litoměřice on the river Labe (Elbe) in northern Bohemia; the Lesser Fortress lies 1km east of the town. |
