21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Vojna Memorial, Czech Republic, Political Prison
On our tour of the Czech Republic, we visited the Vojna Memorial. German POW's originally built it as a prison. The communist government used it as a political re-education camp/prison. The inmates worked in the nearby uranium mines. It is now a memorial to the days when Czechoslovakia was under Soviet occupation. The man on the ladder is attempting to escape.
