My offer:

Terezin Memorial

The fortness of Terezin was built under Emperor Josef II in 1780-1790. It was meant to protect access roads against hostile troops that invaded Bohemia during the Prussian-Austrian wars in the 18th century. It has never fulfilled its duty.

Terezin After the occupation of the Czech lands by Nazi Germany both parts of the Terezin fortress were changed into huge persecution facillities.

From its foundation to April 20, 1945 , some 140.000 men, women and children from many countries were deported to the ghetto.
