About the venue

The Memorial to the Holocaust of the Roma and Sinti in Moravia stands on the authentic site in Hodonín u Kunštátu where a Protectorate so-called Gypsy camp operated in 1942–1943. It was one of two places (the other being Lety u Písku) where entire families of Moravian and Czech Roma and Sinti were forcibly concentrated before being transported to Auschwitz II-Birkenau. Administered by the Museum of Romani Culture, the site includes an information centre with the permanent exhibition "Camp Hodonín u Kunštátu: Intersection of Tragic Fates 1940–1950", a replica prisoner barracks, and the sole surviving original guards' barracks. The nearby Žalov forest cemetery is also part of the memorial area.

April–October: Wed–Sun 10:00–17:00; outside season by prior reservation only
