Gross-Rosen- Stone Hell

 

The project’s concept proposal to commemorate hundreds of thousands of victims of the forced labour Gross-Rosen Concentration Camp has been subordinated to the idea of highlighting the historic part of the quarry excavated at the time when the Concentration Camp was in operation. The project’s overarching idea is to create a sculptural and architectural composition at the preserved quarry and underscore its specific operational characteristics. In the course of a symbolic passage in the footsteps of the convicts, visitors will have opportunity both to go deep into the quarry and watch it from the level of the surrounding heights.
