Gedenkstätte in Langental

In memory of the victims of the NS dictatorship from the community of Großwarasdorf/Veliki Borištof, a memorial site was inaugurated in 2022 on the "Platz der Begegnung" in Langental, a district of the community of Großwarasdorf. The memorial site, created by the artist Peter Kedl, consists of a commemorative plaque and 73 steles made of steel and glass. On the steles are the names or birth and death dates of 69 named Roma and Sinti victims and four victims of the Euthanasia program or political victims of the locality. These steel bodies are arranged in relation to each other so as to approximately reflect the family and kinship relations of the mentioned individuals. The fate of another hundred relatives of the Langental Roma families remains unknown to this day.
