Today we started with a cruel experience, we visited the Nazi concentration camp in Kaunas. Oven 50 000 people were killed her, shot as they stood against this wall (today a green fence showing the place).

I really felt the history among myself as I walked in the building, a 19:th century fort, and saw all the reminders of the Nazi horror.

30 000 Judes were killed, mostly Lithuanians but also from the rest of Europe.

900 French people

Many Germans and this inscription says:

In trauer und Scham – und entsetzt über des Schweigen der Mitwissenden – gedenkt die Landeshauptstadt München der 1000 jüdischen Männer und Frauen, die am 20. November 1941 von München nach Kowno deportiert und fünf Tage später an diesem Ort ermordert wurden.

One nice guesture of the Lithuanian people was the “national” collection of money to construct a memorial statue. Every Lithuanian gave on Rubel in order to make this. And this was done during the communist regime of Soviet Union.
