A place that can mean a lot more to some than to others. The opportunity to get closer to the long-hidden history of one's own family and help find a way to reconcile after years of research and misunderstanding.
I am the granddaughter of the man who took part in the march. He, his younger brother and their mother are expecting another sibling. My father was a German they had never seen before. They have suffered a path full of violence, inhuman conditions, aggressively abusive treatment and suffering. Only three of them returned from Brno to her - the younger brother could not make the trip to Pohořelice.
I would be grateful if this Memorial could further help families reconcile by publishing a list of names of persons for whose families and loved ones the "Brno Death March" is a completely local designation. Why compare the names of historical events and determine what deserved the use of such serious words and what did not. History has named them for us.
This event also draws attention to various aspects of the human being. How far can he reach the boundaries of secrecy and inner pain for the benefit of the people he cares about?
A memorial to honor the dead during displacement after World War II. Once a year there is a pilgrimage (march) from Brno to Pohořelice and then on to Austria. Small parking lot in front of the monument.
To be honest, I was not impressed. Abandoned and running. The parking is small, of course for one bus it will be enough, but not more. Maybe it’s just winter!)
Nice. It is worth visiting
The metal cross by the road to Mikulov, located at the mass grave of the victims of the so-called wild expulsion, recalls one of the most tragic reverberations of the Second World War. On May 30, 1945, 3 weeks after the end of World War II, and 3 months before the expulsion of the Germans from Czechoslovakia was consecrated by the Potsdam Conference, a procession of more than 20,000 Germans left Brno, which later went down in history as a death march.
