Grabanlage for Victims in Südostwallbau in Schattendorf

Outside of Schattendorf, on the „Hochäckern“ near the Hungarian border, there is a burial site for Hungarian-Jewish forced laborers. Between the years 1995 and 1997, 29 unidentified bodies were found here. The sites were re-buried according to Jewish rites and declared a resting place. In 1997, the now purchased and fenced area was equipped by the association Schalom with three gravestones, commemorating the deceased Hungarian-Jewish forced laborers. These individuals were recruited for work on the construction of the Southeast Wall between November 1944 and March 1945 and died from overexertion, exhaustion and rampant typhus.
