GEDENKSTÄTTE BAUTZEN - BAUTZEN MEMORIAL
Go there and contact
In the city's cottage suburbs, it is still the largest detention centre in the GDR. Political internees, opponents, those who tried to flee or simply victims of machinations, the places saw the fate of many people breaking. The former prison today was transformed into a place of commemoration for prisoners of Bautzen I and II prisons. Bautzen I was an important detention centre for the Nazi regime. With the development of Bautzen II, the communists had made the city synonymous with Stasi and repression throughout the country. The exhibition, free of charge, is shocking, meticulously tracing in the corridors and cells of the former prison the biography of many internees.

Ich kenne auch einige Geschichten von Freunden und Bekannten, die da eingesessen sind. Hoffentlich kommt in Deutschland nie wieder eine Zeit, wo man politisch Andersdenkende so behandelt, wie es hier Gang und Gäbe war.
