About Terezin

High quality hoto of Terezin - Czech Republic

Terezin fortress was built by the Emperor Joseph II at the end of the 18th century in honor of his mother Maria Theresa but during the WWII it had been turned into a Jewish ghetto and a Gestapo prison by the Nazis. The fortress includes a whole complex of buildings surrounded by the walls and today it is a living monument that commemorates all victims of Jewish population that lost their lives here due to malnutrition, brutality and overcrowding. By visiting this highly moving complex visitors learn all about daily sufferings and inhumane conditions that Jews had to undergo during the Second World War. The complex is divided between the “Small Fortress” that was a prison for political prisoners and “Large Fortress” that became a ghetto for Jews.
