Stories from Terezín: the Nazi transit camp with a musical legacy – interactive | Päivät | Scoop.it
Great composers and conductors were interned at the Nazi concentration camp near Prague. Learn about their stories and listen to the music they composed
Voar Travel's curator insight, December 2, 2014 11:55 AM

Visiting Prague? Consider taking a day trip to the nearby town of Terezin, which, unbeknownst to most, was a Nazi transit camp where Jews were held until they were transferred to Auschwitz or other camps. On the guided tour, you will visit the cemetery, crematorium and housing grounds where thousands of prisoners were kept. Among the prisoners were many very talented musicians and artists that created beautiful pieces of work, despite the horrible living conditions they found themselves in. (Erin Roman)
