Symbolic March of the Living with candles

On November 24, 1941, 340 Jews arrived at the railway station in Bohusovice nad Ohri in the newly formed ghetto in Terezin. They walked from the station in Bohusovice to Terezin, as well as thousands more in the following year, before a direct railway siding to Terezin was built.

Come with us to commemorate this anniversary and go the same way as the first inhabitants of the Terezin ghetto 80 years ago.

Meeting in Bohušovice nad Ohří in front of the railway station at 16:00, end of the road at the memorial plaque of the railway siding in Terezín. Candles arranged.

Transport for the event will be provided for the participants (from 15:30 from the parking lot at the crematorium in Terezín) and after the event (from Terezín to the Bohušovice railway station).

THE EVENT IS A PART OF THE CYCLE THAT THE TEREZIN MEMORIAL COMMEMORATES THE 80TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BEGINNING OF THE DEPORTATION OF JEWS FROM THE CZECH COUNTRIES AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TEREZÍN GHETTA.
